Asha has always been weak. Even her father believed it. That’s why he sent her away. Now, years later, stranded on an isolated island teeming with exiled warlords, she’s forced to earn her place by weaving blankets ahead of the brutal cold season. But a cruel prank lands her weaving in the most dangerous place in all the village—inside Ramsey’s hut. Ramsey despises the Penticari and considers Asha the weakest of them. Frail, timid, and clearly unfit, she draws his scorn at every turn. Yet late at night, when the village is quiet, she is the only thing he thinks about. Desperate to prove herself, Asha asks that Ramsey take her deep into the inhospitable forest, but when secret desires turn physical, both are unsure of what’s more dangerous—the wilds around them or the sparks that threaten to set them ablaze. Unfortunately for Asha, disaster strikes, and she’s the only one who can save them. Physically, she is no match for the threat, but Ramsey soon discovers there’s more to the small woman than what meets the eye. Can Asha overcome the wilds of the forest and prove herself to the island’s grumpiest warlord? Or will he always see her as unworthy?
