A Concordat for Aurelya

About this book

Eight years ago, Ila Maren was the Concordat of Allied Systems' most brilliant young diplomat—until the Vesh Treaty negotiations ended in a bomb that took her left hand, her reputation, and her name. Branded a traitor and erased from House Maren's records, she vanished to Aurelya Station, a dying refueling outpost at the galaxy's edge, where she hauls cargo by day and teaches dockworkers' children to read by lamplight. Now the Vesh Sovereignty has sent a new envoy to Aurelya carrying a second treaty—and the envoy is Dael Ostren, the man Ila loved in secret during the first failed negotiations, the man who has every reason to believe she betrayed him. As old evidence resurfaces and fresh sabotage rocks the station, Ila and Dael must decide whether the past was a lie, whether trust can be rebuilt from wreckage, and whether a forgotten outpost might become the place where two worlds finally make peace. Told across two timelines—the glittering, doomed negotiations of eight years past and the fragile present on Aurelya—this is a story of second chances, buried truths, and a love that refuses to stay erased.
