It is often thought that faith protects against all earthly misfortunes.
Yet, even those who pray most fervently are not spared.
Aylis Thunder simply wanted to walk with God.
But amidst the whispers of the palaces and the secrets of a newly shattered kingdom where alliances are forged in fire and tears, where religion becomes a tool, she will discover that believing can be as dangerous as loving.
She is Christian. Black. A woman.
And soon to be betrothed to a man the entire kingdom admires... unaware that he hides as many wounds as titles.
Her heart will be her trial. Her faith, her weapon.
In any case, whether she likes it or not, a city on a mountain cannot be hidden. A light must be used to illuminate.
