But when an assassin makes an attempt on her life, Jade is forced down a path she never dreamed she\u2019d walk. Stolen away from her home, she is brought to the land of her enemy, where she must discover her reason for living and scramble to find a way to stop the war before it ends in the death of millions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">And while she battles for freedom, her best friend, Aris Sell, must grapple with Jade\u2019s disappearance. Her paranoia forces her to scrutinize those she\u2019s battled alongside for years, and when she unveils a secret hidden from the masses, she triggers irreversible events that threaten everyone in the Known Galaxy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:39px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/winter-publishing.com\/welcome-to-winter\/newsletter\/\">Join the newsletter for an exclusive prequel story!<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons aligncenter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiebound.org\/book\/9781732586604\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Join The War<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Main Characters:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Jade Cavvar, a reckless and bull-headed red headed soldier. She fights on the side of the Opes, a more or less branch of the military under the Exuro Empire. She excels in creating armor and small mechanical devices, but can&#8217;t seem to master how to make weapons without them quite literally blowing up in her face. Her strong will helps her survive in dire circumstances. Her best friend and roommate is Aris Sell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Aris Sell, the intelligent, tactical mind that helps guide Jade through the battlefield without getting herself killed. What she lacks in fighting prowess, Jade makes up for, creating a perfect balance of brains and brawns between the two of them. She doesn&#8217;t often talk about her past, and rarely mentions her family with high regard. She fights on the side of the Opes, under the lead of the Exuro Empire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/winter-publishing.com\/welcome-to-winter\/cast-of-characters\/\">For a more in-depth look at the characters and world, go here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Content Warnings<\/strong>: Gore, foul language, sexual situations, sexual assault reference.
