blurb:

Sage Halliwell has always believed words could save her. But when she enters her university’s writing competition with a publishing deal as the prize, winning isn’t just a dream. It’s survival.

Still reeling from past abuse, Sage pours her anger into violent, unapologetic fiction. Yet as the pressure mounts, doubts creep in about her story, her talent, even her future.

Then there’s Theodemer Castleton, the charming rugby player she can’t seem to avoid. Sage wants to keep her distance, but his patience and unexpected gentleness begin to chip away at her walls.

With deadlines closing in and stakes rising, Sage must decide if she’s willing to risk her heart again and believe that some stories don’t end in tragedy.

“I took the two ends and pulled them around her, twisting it the way I’d seen done.

“Is this too tight?” I asked when necessary. She always said no. It wrapped over her shoulders and around her middle, up between her breasts until I was satisfied. I then used the tie to her robe to bind her hands.

The ropes looked exquisite against her body. “How do you feel?” I asked.

“I’d always liked to be in control,” she said. “But allowing myself to let go with you makes me feel…free.”

I brought her lips to mine. “Good. I want to be that for you.”

I lifted her and brought her to the mirror I had in the corner. I turned her around, holding her hands above her head. “See how sexy you look?” I asked, needing her to see what I saw.

“I see how sexy you are,” she sassed.

I landed a hand on her aşş, and she yelped. “Seemed you needed a spanking.”

A fake engagement unites them…but is it enough to save them?


SORCHA

I’ve fought tooth and nail to enter the ranks of knighthood. I deserve to be there. But as a princess, the only place I’m allowed is the training yard.

That is until our enemy, Grand Clarak Zarios of Valcor, shows up with an opportunity to save the entire nation from someone in his court trying to dethrone him. It's just what I need to prove my worth.

The catch…I need to pretend to be his intended mate to do it. It begins to seem impossible, especially with new court rules to follow and a grumpy minotaur as a partner.

But this is my one chance, and I won’t let anything stand in my way.

ZARIOS

Everyday it feels as if all I’m doing is putting out fires. Between push back from my own people to traitors in my kingdom, it feels as though everyone is keen to see me fall.

It feels hopeless until I meet Sorcha Yulean, second in line for the throne. With her by my side, fake intended or not, I see the light at the end of the tunnel.

This is my last chance to save my kingdom, and my crown, nothing can get in the way.
Not even my budding feelings for the princess.
