Beyond the Wildwood: Book Three

Beyond the Wildwood

A marriage meant to unite kingdoms may instead ignite a war.

Far beyond the Wildwood and the kingdom of Elysium lies a realm of ancient courts, guarded ambitions, and alliances forged as carefully as weapons.

Princess Jin Daiyu has spent her life learning the delicate art of court politics. Composed, intelligent, and bound by duty, she understands that a royal marriage is rarely about love. But when a powerful and calculating Myeong-gil presents a marriage proposal as necessary to the kingdom’s future, Daiyu quickly realizes there is far more at stake than choosing a husband.

Refusal could mean war.

Acceptance could place her kingdom in the hands of its enemies.

As factions within the palace maneuver for influence, Daiyu finds herself surrounded by secrets. Her cunning companion, Shenzi, begins probing the motives behind the proposed alliance, while the enigmatic Ming-Na quietly guides events from the shadows. Loyalties become increasingly difficult to discern, and every whispered conversation seems to conceal another purpose.

Meanwhile, Myeong-gil is making plans of his own. The marriage is only one move in a far greater game, and his ambitions reach well beyond a single throne.

When Daiyu agrees to a secret meeting intended to uncover the truth, she discovers something far more dangerous than she expected. The proposed union is not simply an alliance.

It is a trap.

Yet rejecting it may unleash the very conflict the marriage was supposed to prevent.

Beyond the Wildwood carries the Wildwood saga into a new realm of royal intrigue, dangerous alliances, hidden agendas, romance, betrayal, and the struggle between duty and the freedom to choose one’s own destiny.

Perfect for readers who enjoy epic fantasy, royal romance, arranged marriages, court intrigue, political conspiracies, family sagas, and kingdoms poised on the edge of war.
