Ludelle, the newly crowned Queen of the Snow Court, is preparing for her first Undertaking-a yearly test from the Weather Gods. If she fails, her court's magic will not replenish and their frigid world will melt into a flood zone of starvation and death.
Zimyn, Ludelle's Captain of the Guard, lives with the knowledge Ludelle needs to place her people and her Court first. Though now he wonders if his presence is hurting or helping his Queen.
So while Ludelle's Undertaking looms, and her royal advisor pressures her to pick a husband of noble status, Zimyn considers resigning his lifelong post at his Queen's side in an effort to make the decision easier on them both. And with the entire Snow Court at stake, Ludelle struggles to decide between her responsibility to her people and a promise kept within her heart.
Of Sapphire and Snow is the first novella in the Weather Court Gem series. Each follows a different couple in their respective court (Snow, Thunder, Lightning, Rain, & Sun), each faced with the challenge of following their heart as the fate of their court's power rests in their hands.
