The world as we know it ended 209 years ago. From a desert wasteland springs a single kingdom, ruled by a tyrannical King and trapped in an endless war against the shadowy desert warriors. As a desperate bid to save what remains of humanity, society has been split into two distinct classes, nicknamed the Court and the Commons. For an oppressed population on the brink of revolution, a common thief could be the last hope. Up until now, Kay has survived by her wits alone. Reckless and impulsive, wanted by the King's guard, Kay has become known as the Runner. Using the city's rooftops as her personal domain, she manages to keep one step ahead of the King with one hand buried in the purses of the courtiers. Driven by the plight of the commoners and the unjust death of her family, Kay seizes the chance to graduate from small-time thievery to full-scale rebellion. Her opportunity comes in the form of Will, a wealthy ex-soldier with a dark past. Plucked from the streets and thrown into the shimmering palace court, Kay must use her every strength to blend into a world where she doesn't belong, closer to the enemy than she ever thought she would be.

Second in the Paladins Series: For the last decade or more Prince Erec has been trained by the head paladin, Nina Benoite, in the arts of combat, war, and strategy. He entrusted to her his education, his morals, and his heart. He has loved her since the day that they met, but no longer can he stand to watch her from afar. He wants to prove himself worthy of her affection in turn, and the current war with Gascony seems the perfect opportunity to do so. Though not raised in Vasconia, Nina is loyal to her king and cause. When the prince is captured as a prisoner of war on the battlefield, she will brave the foreign kingdom and whatever dangers it may hold for a paladin like herself to rescue him. Though, she doesn't know if she can brave the longing stares and sweet words her prince has begun giving her nearly so easily. War wages on between the ancient kingdoms of Vasconia and Gascony, two ideologies clashing because of a feud between the ruling classes. Erec thinks little of his enemy's cultures and beliefs. Nina, however, wishes she could have such distance as they struggle to cross this kingdom that is not so foreign to her in an effort to return the crown prince home.
