House of Ice and Whispers (House of Blood and Whispers, #0)

House of Ice and Whispers
The Prequel to House of Blood and Whispers

In a land where the cold never sleeps and legends are forged in blood, love is the fire that refuses to die.

When the palace burns and the royal family is slaughtered, Edel escapes into the frozen wilds with the last ember of hope: five-year-old Princess Cahki, the sole heir to a fallen throne. Hunted and desperate, she vanishes into the maze of the fjords where the cold bites deep and secrets run deeper.

There, they cross paths with Aren, a fjord pirate with a past as jagged as the cliffs he sails. At first, he's their reluctant guide. Then, their fiercest protector. As danger looms from every shore and betrayal hides in every shadow, Edel and Aren are drawn together, their bond forged in blood, ice, and fire.

Together, they carve out a new life in the unforgiving wilderness, building a family not of birthright, but of love and survival. But peace is fragile in a land where the cold is never just weather and enemies never truly sleep.

House of Ice and Whispers is a heart-pounding, heart-wrenching journey of survival, found family, and fierce love, where every moment pulses with danger and emotion. A breathtaking prequel to House of Blood and Whispers, this is the beginning of the legend where the whispers began, and blood first stained the snow.
