Raised by her farmer father, Dalia finds herself forced into a fake marriage with the Pharaoh of Egypt. Djoser is as cruel as he is just, and Dalia is forced to suffer not only his whims, but at the whims of visiting rulers. Enter Imhotep, the Vizier and right hand of the Pharaoh.

Unexpectedly, Imhotep is tasked with ensuring that Dalia becomes pregnant with Djoser’s heir and the more time he spends with the young, quiet woman, the more he finds himself falling for her.

After a life threatening incident, Imhotep nurses Dalia back to life. They make their feelings known to one another and come up with a plan to run away together. Only, Djoser tracks them down and orders their execution, but a solemn vow uttered on the cusp of death is heard by the gods, and sends their souls into another life centuries later.

This book does end on a cliffhanger, but you'll see the characters again in book two of the Immortal Souls Duet!
