The Treaty Bride
A peace treaty requires a marriage. She is the last legitimate heir of a collapsed empire’s successor state — a trained Pact Archivist recalled before her certification was complete and positioned as a bloodline asset in a negotiation she was not consulted about. He is the general who helped force her country to the table, sent to the border keep because his absence from the capital is as useful to his superiors as his presence at the treaty.
Six weeks of negotiation. A treaty that becomes something neither delegation planned. Two people built by the same kind of institution — valued for their competence, managed for their convenience — who find in each other the one person who does not require them to perform.
THE TREATY BRIDE is clean, closed-door epic romantic fantasy set in a fully realized secondary world with no magic. Power in Ashveld comes from politics, bloodlines, ancient pacts, and the weight of three fallen empires. The tone is lyrical but precise — sweeping in scope, intimate in focus. The slow burn is the story.
Book One of the Chronicles of the Broken Empires. Standalone with a complete, satisfying ending.
