A Broken Resilience

Sixteen suitors. Three rounds. One Rite to prove Eli is worthy of standing by Grace‘s side. Now that he‘s finally admitted his feelings for her, he won‘t let anyone stand between them, especially not the other suitors vying for her heart. He‘ll do whatever it takes-he‘d even kill for her. While celebrations surround the Rite, a rebellion grows in the shadows and threatens to derail the place that they call home. Driven by greed and the thirst for power, Grace‘s adversaries seek to overthrow her, saying she‘s too emotional to lead. But Berland was ed to be a sanctuary, a place for the broken to be healed, and Grace will always put her people‘s needs before her own. Her compassion is not a weakness. As Grace faces unrest, she must rely on her newfound friends to keep her city safe. But in a world where so much is unknown, one thing is for certain-resilience will be the deciding factor between tragedy and triumph.
