With the Haederan Empire mostly ousted from Asria, Avery Rendon should feel freer than she has in years-certainly since the Haederan invasion. Yet when she's nearly assassinated on the day of her long-overdue coronation, intelligence suggests the perpetrator is her estranged brother, Quen. He may have denied wanting the throne years ago, but now it seems he wants another shot-and he won't stop until she no longer stands in his way. Convinced her life is in imminent danger, she flees to Haedera, the last place Quen will ever think to look.But the reclusive planet isn't the sanctuary she was promised, and in the volatile aftermath of the Commonwealth-Haederan War, political intrigue is treacherous and allies are few. When Quen tracks her to Haedera and her enemies close in around her, Avery is forced to trust the one man she swore she'd never forgive.And that trust will come at a cost.

After dealing a major blow to the enemy, Avery Rendon has found her way home to Asria. Safe for now, she spends her time adjusting to her new role in her planet's future and reveling in personal victories. But Asria is still under the control of the Haederan Empire, and their grip has tightened since the invasion. When the Asrian prime minister begs her to ask the Commonwealth for help in person, she agrees. It's a harrowing trip to the Commonwealth's headquarters, one which comes to an abrupt end when her ship is intercepted by the Haederans in deep space. Her traitorous uncle, the former king of Asria, is there waiting for her. Worse, so is the Haederan interrogator who has haunted her nightmares for the past year. His plans for her now? Avery isn't sure she wants to find out.Alliances will shift. Trust will be broken. And through it all, time is running out for the people Avery cares about the most.

Gareth Chase might be a model Haederan officer, but even his unshakable loyalty to his emperor can't assuage his constant misgivings. Certain his past deeds have destined him to a hellish afterlife, he's not happy to be ordered to his empire's newly conquered planet of Asria to keep watch on their princess. He's even less thrilled to find that his new charge is insolent, reckless, and defiant-and almost certainly an enemy spy.Katryn Holt is also headed for Asria-as a hostage. But hostages aren't usually treated like this, are they? She's got her own cabin on the long-range starship, black-market Commonwealth coffee, and pleasant company-even if he is Haederan. But as she wrestles with her strange attraction to Rhys Linden, one thought remains: how will things change once they reach their destination?Torn between his obligations and conscience, Chase will fight his imperial duty, no matter the cost. Trapped between her brother's mistakes and her own emotions, Katryn will fight for a hopeless escape. But by the time the two finally meet on this foreign, war-torn planet, setting things right may be impossible.Shattered Honor shows the events of Asrian Skies from the point of view of the conquerors . . . who aren't always the winners.
