She had always dreamed of becoming a scholar, but her family had other plans for her. They wanted her to marry into a wealthy and powerful family, and they were willing to do anything to make it happen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEkata's brother was finally named heir to the dukedom of Kylma Above, and this meant that Ekata would be forced to stay at home with her murderous family. She had no interest in marrying someone she didn't love, and she knew that her family would never allow her to pursue her dreams.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Ekata was determined to stay alive and to prove herself as a scholar. She spent all of her time reading books and conducting experiments, and she was constantly dreaming of a better life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne day, Ekata's brother and his wife fell under a strange sleeping sickness. No one knew what was causing it, and there was no cure. In the space of a single night, Ekata inherited the title of duke, her brother's captivating warrior bride, and ever-encroaching challengers from without--and within--her ministry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNothing had prepared Ekata for diplomacy, for war, for love, or for a crown she had never wanted. But she knew that she had to seize her family's magic and power if Kylma Above was to survive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEkata was a skilled diplomat, and she quickly learned how to navigate the complex political landscape of Kylma Above. She was also a fierce warrior, and she was able to lead her troops to victory in many battles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Ekata was also a compassionate woman, and she was deeply concerned about the people of Kylma Above. She knew that her family's magic and power could be used for great good, but she also knew that it could be used for great evil.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Ekata struggled to wield her family's magic and power, she quickly realized that she had to make difficult decisions. She had to decide whether to use her power to help her people or to use it to further her own interests. She had to decide whether to trust her allies or to betray them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEkata was also faced with the challenge of dealing with her own emotions. She had always been a shy and introverted woman, and she had never been in love. But she found herself falling in love with a young warrior named Rikar, who had been sent to Kylma Above to help Ekata defend her kingdom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRikar was a brave and loyal soldier, and he was also a kind and gentle man. He had a deep respect for Ekata and her power, and he was willing to do anything to help her.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Ekata was also afraid of her feelings for Rikar. She knew that her family would never approve of their relationship, and she was afraid that it would lead to her downfall.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the end, Ekata was able to use her family's magic and power to help her people. She was able to defeat her enemies and to bring peace to Kylma Above. And she was also able to find happiness in her relationship with Rikar.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEkata had survived the curse, and now she must survive the throne. But she had learned that true power comes not from magic or from power, but from compassion and from love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 294g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 131 x 197 x 29 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781789095388\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Claire Eliza Bartlett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44105382985978,"sku":"9781789095388","price":6.41,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/4ecab63f6e67a8df6538e294f0826cd8.jpg?v=1636430371","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/winter-duke-2","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
