Sinopsis

In a kingdom ruled by a ruthless monarch, two brothers are torn apart by royal decree—one forced into military service, the other left behind to nurture a growing rebellion.

Kain Villairo, son of a legendary rebel, is conscripted into the Royal Army of Nymea as a child. Under the tutelage of the fearsome Royal Hand, Sir Drake, he transforms from a reluctant recruit into the kingdom's deadliest warrior. Rising through the ranks to become a general, Kain serves the very crown that executed his father, his loyalty to King Alastor seemingly unshakable.

Meanwhile, his twin brother Bruce remains in their village, eventually continuing their father's legacy by igniting a rebellion against the crown. As famine spreads through the kingdom and tensions rise, the two brothers find themselves on opposite sides of a brewing civil war.

When a devastating betrayal forces Kain to question everything he's fought for, he must confront the brutal truth of what he's become. Trapped between duty, family, and vengeance, Kain faces an impossible choice that will determine not only his fate but the future of the entire kingdom.

"The Grey Lion" is a gripping tale of brotherhood, betrayal, and redemption, exploring how power corrupts and how the monsters we fight can sometimes become the monsters we are. Epic in scope yet intimately personal, this novel delves into the devastating costs of war and the blurred lines between hero and villain.

If you enjoyed "The First Law" trilogy, "The Broken Empire" series, and "The Poppy War," you'll love "The Grey Lion."

Alpha Nicholas's Little Mate -...

Becky J

“Please let me know when you would like to make the rejection official." Her words hit me like a ton of bricks and despite her acting like the words she just said were nothing important
 
 "Would you like to do it now?" While my head screams yes, my heart burns begging me to say no. How can I go from never wanting my little mate to feeling so torn up at the idea of her leaving? I always assumed that I would meet her and reject her without a care but now that the reality of the situation is staring me right in the face I know that it won't be easy, not one bit.
 
Alpha Nicholas is 28, mateless, and has no interest in changing that. This year, it's his turn to host the annual Blue Moon Ball, and the last thing his wolf expects is to find his mate. Even more shocking is that his mate is 10 years younger—and he can’t ignore how his body reacts to her. He tries to fight the bond, but his world unravels when his guards capture two she-wolves running through his territory.
 
Bonnie has been broken by those closest to her, including her own twin sister. Together with her best friend Lilly, they plan to escape during the Blue Moon Ball, hosted by another pack. But when things go wrong, they’re left uncertain about their future.
 
When they’re brought to Alpha Nicholas, he faces his little mate again and uncovers secrets that will make him want to kill more than one person. Can Alpha Nicholas stop fighting the bond and accept a mate much younger than him? Will Bonnie want him after feeling the sting of his unofficial rejection? Can they both let go of their pasts, or will fate keep them apart? 
 
Note: Book 4 in the tetralogy series of the full edition (Chapters 104–131).
