2017 Global Ebook Awards Honorable Mention, Fantasy
Two princes. One bride. A dire misunderstanding... Meet Geo and Dmitri, the Princes of Tybiria. Though Geo is the obvious athlete, it's his bookish brother, Dmitri, who receives the credit - and consequences - for slaying the young Prince of Llewes in battle. But whose arrow really struck the lad?
Lucie of Backshore is Prince Geo's secret mistress...until she learns of her disastrous betrothal to his brother, the Crown Prince Dmitri!
When the bereaved King of Llewes abducts Dmitri at his engagement party, Geo and Lucie must set aside their personal grievances to rescue him. At the fortress as prisoner, Dmitri strikes his own friendship and escape plan with Pavi, a mysterious castle ward. A messy love-quadrangle, a plot to assassinate the king, and a hitwoman harlot complete this action-packed romantic fantasy in another wickedly fast-paced, rollicking adventure from C.K. Brooke.
