A war is brewing…
Twenty years ago, training for war and the looming siege of the Sagittarian Court began for the humans of Constellina.
Present-day…
Twenty-four-year-old Gwen is determined to take her place as Queen and lead her armies into battle against the Dracane Kingdom. King Outher, the ruler of the Dracane Kingdom, has slaughtered, invaded, and placed many dragon shifters throughout the human realm, ready to take it over when the time is right.
When a marriage proposal from the Lirian Court Prince is discussed, Gwen must prepare for a masquerade with the help of her two best friends; Princess Victoria and Princess Dilliha. A handsome stranger approaches her for a dance and initially whisks her off her feet. Upon leaving the ballroom to have a private conversation, Gwen finds herself in a perilous situation where she has to fight for her life.
Alexxander
As the infamous Mafia King of the Sagittarian Court cities, Alexxander reigns over his territory with three laws: don’t break any of his rules and you will meet the god of death.
When a proposition from a human prince turns into a command from his father, Alexxander finds himself at the palace on the night of a masquerade ball. Using his shifter powers, he glamours his wings and horns in order to find the human he was sent to kill.
This is an enemies-to-lovers dark fantasy romance novel at 70,000 words. There are trigger and content warnings at the very beginning of the book, so please read those before diving into this action-packed, magical, steamy adventure.
My thoughts: this is very spicy, instead of making plans our protagonists spend all their time having sex, which means they’re often on the back foot when it comes to trying to stop Alex’s father, the evil Outher Pendragon from declaring war and murdering everyone.
Gwen is pretty fiery, despite supposedly being human, while Alex is trying to free his inner dragon, locked up since his mother’s death twenty years before. It also seems that they’re mates (in the SJM sense) even though they’re not very keen on each other.
Very loosely inspired by the Arthurian myths, this is the first in the series, with Outher’s children rebelling against their father and his reign, and the princesses of the other lands wanting to stop him too.
