Kellen, for her part, can’t trust Rae…but she trusts Rae…but she can’t trust Rae….but she trusts Rae….this cycle goes on for virtually the entire book, and yes, it gets annoying!Īrmeo is at the center of a political battle between empires. MC Commodore Rae Jacelon is supposed to be a by-the-book career military woman, yet she very quickly decides to bend lots of rules to protect the secretive MC Kellen O'Dal and 12yo Armeo, the boy Kellen has sworn to protect.
