Edric's always done the right thing, worked hard, and put other's needs before himself. And then the confirmed bachelor falls for Aralyn. Their joining wouldn't be proper, would break tradition and put old friendships at risk. But duty still calls. He's charged with protecting the Seers-their supernatural gifts his people's last defense against an enemy that can't be killed by sword or fire. And the last Seers are being hunted into extinction. How much is he willing to sacrifice to make her his own?
