It wasn’t just a dinner, and after it was over, Aren was finally able to admit to himself that he’d been bloody terrified about how Lara would conduct herself. Afraid she’d attempt to charm by being smooth and ingratiating, which rather than winning his people over, would’ve put them off entirely.In the first draft of the manuscript that I sent my editor, after the battle on Serrith Island where Lara kills all those soldiers on the path and Aren starts to get little prickles of suspicion it jumped almost straight to the scene where Aren gets shot by the arrow (with acknowledgement that several weeks have passed).

Around her, she sees a kingdom fighting for survival, and in Aren, a man fiercely protective of his people.
