Mandzee Hamartano has her crown?but barely. The new queen of Jaelport rules a city on the edge of revolt, bound by a treaty she didn't want with a king she doesn't trust. Every reform she dares to make earns her another enemy. And she's already running out of friends.

The last person she needs walking through her gates is Lovell Dunn?King Gidon's royal envoy, devastatingly charming, and predisposed to distrust every mage he's ever met. She throws him in a dungeon. He talks his way out. She offers him a tunnel out of the city. He refuses to leave.

When dark forces inside the city align with a threat she never saw coming, Mandzee must navigate a deadly mage tournament, a treacherous brother returned from the grave, and a half-blind envoy who sees more clearly than anyone around her. If she's going to save her kingdom, she'll need to trust him?and maybe even trust the God he serves.

But in a city built on power and magic, falling for the one man immune to both might be the most dangerous thing she's ever done.

For fans of Shari L. Tapscott and faith-forward fantasy romance, Queen of Reckoning delivers enemies-to-more slow burn, political intrigue, and a romance worth fighting for.
