Alberich never planned to be a hero. Especially not for the enemy.
Once a Karsite war captain, Alberich now serves as a Herald of Valdemar—an exile, a foreigner, and a man most still don’t trust. But his new role places him at the side of young Queen Selenay, just crowned and wildly unprepared for the political games that swirl around her throne.
As prejudice and palace intrigue mount, Alberich must navigate deadly plots, shifting alliances, and a monarch whose heart may be her greatest weakness. His sword can protect her body, but can he shield her from betrayal within?
Exile’s Valor is a sharp, character-driven tale of loyalty, strategy, and one gruff warrior’s reluctant bond with a queen determined to rule her way.
