In a world ruled by steel and shadow, Elowen dares the impossible: to stand beside the knight she admires—by becoming his squire. But the path to his side is guarded by more than skill. It demands disguise, courage, and a secret that could shatter everything.

Disguised as a boy, Elowen navigates the brutal trials of the squire's game—where every challenge could expose her true self and cost her everything she's fought for. As danger lurks in the shadows of the castle and trust is a weapon as sharp as any blade, Elowen must fight not only to survive but to be seen.

With a knight's honor at stake and a forbidden bond growing between them, Elowen's greatest battle is yet to come. Because some truths are worth risking everything for—and some loves are worth fighting for, even when the game is rigged.
