    Summary

    “You are very young, solnyshka,” he murmurs. “It is a man imprudent who plucks a flower not yet in bloom.”

    “Likewise, a man who leaves it on the vine to dry,” she replies pertly.


    There are no plagues in Ravka. No disease, no deformity, no death. The last of the otkazat’sya died out more than two centuries ago from the Great Plague. Only the strongest Grisha survived.

    To see their people endure, Grisha are matched for marriage by the most skilled of the corporalki order; the datchik. The datchik see the best mates paired to ensure the strongest offspring.

    Aleksander is the King's firstborn son. He must marry his equal.

    Alina is the Duke's daughter. She hopes to marry her love.

    Jaded by the ugly price of utopian ideals, Aleksander does not expect the woman matched as his wife to ever become his compatriot for life.

    Summary

    "You're not my husband," she whispers, nostrils flaring.

    "I am tonight," he returns gently.


    Aleksander Morozov is brother to the king. The shadow summoner is stronger but younger than his brother, the king.

    Alina Starkova is the sun summoner. She is young and beautiful. And promised to the king.

    The king cannot beget an heir. His younger brother is pledged to serve him in whatever way he needs.
