She was raised to fear a king.
She never imagined he'd be the one trying to save her.
Hidden deep within Blackwood Forest, Xiery Jens has spent her entire life preparing for one purpose: help the rebels reclaim a stolen throne and stay hidden from the cursed king who destroyed her family.
Then the king's army comes looking for her.
Not her village.
Not the rebels.
Her.
Captured by the enemy she was taught to hate, Xiery discovers the truth is far more dangerous than the lies she's always believed. King Elan Brudanak isn't the ruthless tyrant of rebel legend, and every answer he offers leads to another impossible question.
Why has someone been hunting her since childhood?
Why can an ancient sorcerer imprisoned within the legendary Blade of Ormwallen speak only to her?
And why do kingdoms rise—and fall—on the fate of a girl who was never supposed to matter?
As prophecy awakens, old alliances shatter, and powerful enemies close in from every side, Xiery must decide whom she can trust: the king willing to risk everything to protect her, the battle-hardened warrior whose loyalty hides dangerous secrets, or the mysterious voice calling to her from a blade lost to history.
Because if Xiery uncovers the truth of who she really is, she won't just change the future of Zaria.
She may become the one person capable of destroying it.
The Shadow and the Blade is the first novel in the Cursed Kingdom series—a sweeping slow-burn romantasy filled with hidden identities, dangerous magic, political intrigue, legendary relics, and impossible choices. Perfect for readers who love The Bridge Kingdom, Throne of Glass, and Reign & Ruin.
