The Balancer

Aedra's refuge is her curse.

After a brutal attack leaves her pregnant with a mixed-blood child, Aedra flees the laws of the Balancer enclave to protect her daughter, Fina. For years she's built a quiet life in hiding—until the magic that once held their realm together vanishes, and vengeance rises in its place.

When Brion, a Blessing Giver sent to quell the unrest, appears on her doorstep, Aedra's world fractures. Guided by Paladin, he's sworn to restore peace, but the moment he sees Fina, a mirror of his dead brother, his loyalty begins to unravel.

Aedra swore she'd never love another member of the Order. But when she's offered a chance to keep her bloodline secret and secure peace for her daughter, Aedra must choose:

Protect the ones she loves through lies…or risk everything for a love she was never meant to claim.
