Ash Princess (Ash Princess #1) by Laura Sebastian
Synopsis:
Theodosia was only six years old when the Kalovaxians invaded his country and murdered his mother, the Queen of Flame and Fury, before his very eyes. At that time, the young princess lost everything. Even his name.
With the new name of Thora and the ridiculous nickname of "Princess of Ashes", Theodosia has spent ten years imprisoned in her own palace suffering the abuse and humiliation of the Kaiser. But when the dictator forces her to execute the only person who could have saved her from her nightmare, Theodosia decides to rise from the ashes. His cunning is more powerful than any sword. And a kingdom is not always won on the battlefield.
For ten years the Princess of Ashes has seen her land plundered and her people enslaved. The time has come to put an end to this oppression.

Lady Smoke (Ash Princess #2) by Laura Sebastian
Synopsis:
The Kaiser murdered Theodosia's mother, the Fire Queen when Theo was only six. He took Theo's country and kept her prisoner, crowning her Ash Princess--a pet to toy with and humiliate for ten long years. That era has ended. The Kaiser thought his prisoner weak and defenceless. He didn't realize that a sharp mind is the deadliest weapon.
Theo no longer wears a crown of ashes. She has taken back her rightful title, and a hostage--Prinz Soren. But her people remain enslaved under the Kaiser's rule, and now she is thousands of miles away from them and her throne.
To get them back, she will need an army. Only, securing an army means she must trust her aunt, the dreaded pirate Dragonsbane. And according to Dragonsbane, an army can only be produced if Theo takes a husband. Something an Astrean Queen has never done.
Theo knows that freedom comes at a price, but she is determined to find a way to save her country without losing herself.
