The Queen’s Secret duology is set in a kingdom where magic is forbidden and a secret assassin serves the crown. Caledon Holt, bound by blood oath to eliminate the queen’s enemies, crosses paths with Shadow, a young woman who refuses to accept the limited future society has planned for her.

Melissa De La Cruz builds a fantasy world of court intrigue, hidden magic, and dangerous assignments. The romance between the trained killer and the determined outsider drives the plot, but the books also explore questions of duty, identity, and who deserves power.

The series showcases De La Cruz’s move into more traditional fantasy territory, combining her gift for romantic tension with sword-and-sorcery adventure.
