Wedding of the Torn Rose

Brian A. Mendonça

Sinossi

She ran from an arranged marriage to a foreign prince. He ran from a past he’d rather ignore. Together, they’re running out of time.

 
Kaine, a down-on-his-luck merchant scraping by in the Darian Kingdom, never expected to save a princess from a monster straight out of fantasy. But when he rescues the runaway Princess Lydia, he’s thrust into a world of courtly intrigue and hidden dangers far deadlier than the beast in the woods.

 
Lydia’s father has betrothed her to a foreign prince—a desperate alliance to secure power now that magic has entered the world. Yet Lydia carries secrets of her own: the darkest truths of those around her, and a dread certainty about what waits beyond the altar.

 
As time marches toward the ceremony, Kaine must confront his own broken past while unraveling a conspiracy that could ignite a war between their kingdoms. Some sacrifices are meant to be hidden. Some lies are meant to protect. And some roses bloom only when torn apart.

 
When duty clashes with honor, and trust is the most dangerous magic of all, Kaine faces an impossible choice: stand by as a princess marches toward danger, or risk everything to expose truths that could change everything.

 
Wedding of the Torn Rose is a gripping tale of magic, the crushing burden of secrets, and the fragile line between peace and conflict—where the cost of survival may be too much to bear.

 
Will Kaine save Lydia in time? Or is her wedding only the beginning of the end?

Leothius Hollen arrives in Presque Isle, home of the dragon rulers, to investigate the murder of the mage ambassador. The last thing he expects is to run into the sexy-as-sin guy who stood him up months ago. Well, really the last thing he expects is the guy is actually King Gundhram.

Gundhram never wanted to rule, but the death of the mage ambassador left his sister in a bad spot, and he returned to Presque Isle to help her deal with the mage inquisitor sent to investigate the murder. How much did karma hate him that the inquisitor turned out to be the guy he'd rejected months earlier, but couldn't get out of his thoughts? Finding out they were mates, however, was the ultimate payback. Before they settle into the whole mate thing, someone tries to murder Gund's sister, and Leo nearly dies trying to save her. They discover the attempted murder was just a diversion for the real threat. When they try to prevent that threat, they learn there is an even bigger one waiting in the wings.
