The Exile's Return

Cassian Stormborn spent twelve years hiding. A prince who fled after being forced to execute innocent farmers, he built a quiet life as a mechanic, attending church every Sunday, trying to forget the blood on his hands. Then his brother—Crown Prince Aldric—is murdered. Summoned home to a palace full of vipers, Cassian discovers someone sabotaged Aldric's blade. To find the truth, he must become the warrior he swore he'd never be again.
