She was everything society had told her woman shouldn't be; brutal and violet and heartless and unapologetically gay. She had a penchant for seducing jocks and sleeping with their girlfriends, often leaving in the dead of night without so much as a goodbye or a kiss on the lips, simply the memories of the night they'd shared together and the knowledge that their boyfriend would never compare to the hurricane that is Arden Verity. Draped in a black leather jacket, wearing bold, dark red lipstick and leaning against a motorbike to match, she was untouchable and unchained. This all changed during a house party when Arden stumbles upon some asshole cornering this poor girl, calling her a prude and telling her to relax as he roamed his hands down her side before slipping them under the dress she wore. Arden hadn't come to the party intending to knock someone out but she was always eager to bloody her lips and bruise her fists. She hadn't intended on falling in love either, but the best things are often those that are unplanned, spontaneous and wild.

2015 Winner of Harlequin's SYTYCW Contest. Sent as a bride candidate for the emperor, Evony is anything but happy about the situation. She might be a trained warrior of the Amazzi, but she knows little of court and intrigue. It's her difference that draws the attention of the emperor and as she slowly finds out more about the man who conquered the world, she can't deny her attraction to him. She wants him and she's sure he feels the same, but she can't seem to crack through the shell he erected after the assassination of his sister. As a plot for his throne unfolds, Evony has to choose her honour and that of her people or her love for the emperor. Even if she's not sure he feels the same.
