"Welcome to the kingdom of Dresha, where power is everything, and the subjects are used as pawns.
Alyx was not born to be an assassin, but life is hard for orphaned children in the kingdom. With no other choice, she picks up the blade and forges herself into a weapon, becoming part of an infamous underworld gang, the Daggers. Years later, despite her cold-heartedness, she saves a man from a fate worse than death.
That man turns out to be none other than the king.
With his sights set on Alyx and the skills she possesses, he offers her a deal she cannot refuse—pretend to be his betrothed and discover who is plotting to kill him in return for everything she has ever desired.
What the king doesn't know is the only thing she truly desires is revenge.
Kingdoms will rise or fall, friendships will be broken, and truths will be revealed.
Can you survive the Kingdom of Crowns and Daggers?"
"Ari has been running from her dark past her whole adult life.
She finally managed to flee the United Kingdom and has made a new life for herself in the United States where she works as a nurse. Except life isn't that simple. She's a werewolf, and not just any werewolf—a Shadowborn. Able to become shadow, it's an ability some would kill to possess.
No one except her witchy best friend knows of her abilities, and that's how she likes it, until Ari's past catches up with her.
Forced to accept help from the local wolf pack, Ari is made to face the realities of pack life, including Alpha males that think they can claim her as theirs.
There's more going on in the supernatural community than it first appears, and when people start to go missing, Ari could be vital in helping to solve who's behind it. However, she's been a lone wolf for so long, that getting over her trust issues are going to be easier said than done.
To survive, Ari will have to endure trials, loss and sacrifice. Will she come out of the shadows with her heart intact?
Contains mature themes."
