From USA Today Bestselling Author K Webster, comes a dark, fantasy romance standalone novel!
In a cold, empty castle, a young queen is dying.
Weak. Fragile. Disgraced.
But Queen Whitestone is not alone in her final days.
She has her beloved sister.
Until a wicked king rides onto her land.
Arrogant. Insufferable. Demanding.
King Bloodsun has come with an offer…peace in trade for a bride.
He wants the princess.
The fiery king won’t take no for an answer.
He vows to keep the cold queen captive until she gives in to his demands.
A queen bows for no one, though.
Not even when she’s frail and fading away.
She’ll tap into her strength, protecting the only family she has left.
The king is about to learn why they call her the cruel one…
This was a quick, fun read with a dark little twist on a popular fairy tale which I absolutely devoured in no time flat. Not that I’m all that surprised, it is K Webster after all, but sometimes those things need to be stated.
As for our King and Queen. I adored Ryke. He is all kinds of take charge Alpha AF male and though he can be cruel, there is a sense of honor and even compassion in him that draws you in. And then there is Elzira. She is cruel but she is also kind (anyone else have the song Cruel to be Kind running their heads?) ..that dichotomy made her absolutely fascinating to me and I loved watching as the two sides of her came together and made her stronger.
Their journey to their HEA is definitely an interesting one, but one I thoroughly enjoyed. They are well matched adversaries and I loved their bantering and how they ended up being each other’s everything
It’s hard to not sound like a broken record when it comes to Ms. Webster because I truly love all the words that she has put out into the universe and this baby is no different. She kept things simple even while building a vibrant and rich new world and was detailed and yet didn’t over do it. While this has its dark moments, it is not as dark as some of her other works, so there are triggers but nothing too extreme, at least IMHO. The secondary cast of characters are all well written and I’m hoping that we’ll visit this world again sometime in the future!
