A Burden of Love

Slave. Master. Rebel. Fugitive. Now husband and wife, Yonah and Naris do all they can to present themselves as the perfect couple. As a new slave master, Yonah must learn how to maneuver the politics of the upper class. What Naris doesn't know is that, not only is Yonah lying about her true feelings for her husband, but she is also contributing to the rebellion by using their home as a safe house for slaves escaping Harasa. Yonah can only guess what Naris might do to her if he were to discover her betrayal. All she knows is that her luck will eventually run out, and she will once again be an enemy to the government. Yonah is more than willing to risk a lifetime of imprisonment or re-enslavement for the sake of ending slavery in Harasa, but her husband is the type of man who likes to take justice into his own hands. Can Naris' love protect Yonah from his wrath? This novel is the second installment in the A Collection of Scars trilogy.
