New York Times and USA Today bestselling
author Jennifer Estep.
Everleigh Blair might

far from over.
First, Evie has to deal with a court
full of arrogant, demanding nobles, all of whom want to get
their greedy hands on her crown. As if that wasn't bad
enough, an assassin tries to kill Evie in her own throne
room.
Despite the dangers, Evie goes ahead with a
scheduled trip to the neighboring kingdom of Andvari in
order to secure a desperately needed alliance. But
complicating matters is the stubborn Andvarian king, who
wants to punish Evie for the deaths of his countrymen during
the Seven Spire massacre.
But dark forces are at work
inside the Andvarian palace, and Evie soon realizes that no

she is truly strong enough to be a Winter Queen.

isn't quite sure what Sullivan is to her.
