"Won't we discuss this, before you so cruelly break my heart?" ~-~-~-~-~-~ In the opulent courts of a bygone era, young Annika's destiny takes an unexpected turn when she is noticed by the Queen. From a devil-may-care personality to a fearless commander, she is thrown into a world full of terrifying, sword-swinging adventures. But amidst the clashing blades and courtly myst, an even more perilous battlefield emerges - her heart. As she spends more time with the cagey bodyguard of the Crown Prince, a certain L-word begins to blossom. But he hides many secrets, and he's not all that he seems. With their loyalties stretched and their duty on the line, will their growing affection be their salvation or their downfall in a time of queens and knights?

Everyone wants to be a beast - until it's time to do what beasts do. ---- Freya is an eighteen-year-old focused on mentally growing stronger while on a dangerous mission to ruin the man she used to call 'father', but now there's a guy in the picture, with a long story and a set of devilish eyes. Is it okay to trust a boy again, or will this lead to the same fate as before? She's always needed to be saved, but no one ever told her, what if he needs saving too?

❝He was the scary story parents read to their kids. And she fell in love with a monster.❞ ----- Xanthe Jacox is a sarcastic, fierce and down to earth eighteen-year-old. Did I mention sarcastic? She's that one girl who would probably be the first to get killed in a horror movie just for shouting 'hello?' to absolutely nothing, so God knows what'll happen if she gets kidnapped. Which she does. By Alaska's most wanted outlaw and famous gang leader. Enter Arsen Reed; dangerous, dark and cold-hearted. No one knows why he's like that, or how he's like that. But once he lays eyes on Xanthe, everyone knows she belongs to him. But Arsen hides a lot of secrets, and Xanthe has a fair share of her own, too. Despite the thin line between love, hate, goofy guys and lovesick gangsters, things for Arsen, Xanthe and the rest of the group are not looking up. That's what happens when you turn into a criminal. So walk through this story with me, filled with drama, crazy idiots, murder, many - confusing - plots and, most important of all, reckless love. ----- ❝Pretty little words covered your dark and crooked heart. With a forked tongue, I fell in love, then I fell apart. You are so cold-hearted.❞ ----- Buckle up, kids. This is going to be a nasty ride.
