    Ranked #562 and #729 in historical fiction Richard III, murder, tyrant, evil and the very meaning of Chivalry. You know him, right? A man who Henry Tudor had every right to take the throne off. Well no, that's just the rumours you know. Richard had to do what he did to survive. Then he was blamed for things he didn't do.

    Gideon is back in trouble (what else is new) and jumping forward in time 30 years to the War of the Roses. The year is 1463. The Lancasters are on the run, and the Yorks are in power. Gideon is allied with the Lancasters but at the moment the current threat is supernatural, and hunting both houses. As usual, living people die, dying people live, Richard III is involved somehow. Fourth wall breaks galore. Found families. Everybody is probably gay, swords are described in loving detail, people are not, lovely platonic friendships, did we mention swords? Yes, you may learn something about history and feel the overwhelming urge to join the Richard III society, but that's a risk you'll have to take. Trigger/Content Warnings: some mild crude humor (middle school level) and some profanity. Brief mention of abusive families. Fantasy violence. Some moderate peril and frightening scenes.

Two young people with completely different lives meet. One is a king, the other a peasant. Even worse, one in English and the other French, but when they meet sparks fly and nothing can stop the raging flames that will rip across the battlefield, a fairytale no more...

    The year is 1409. It has been nine years since Owen Glendower, Prince of Wales, instigated the devastating Welsh Revolt against the rule of King Henry IV of England. Despite initial revolutionary success, the Welsh forces are now faltering against the might and wealth of the English king and his heir; and so, like a criminal, Glendower is forced to flee. His sons all taking flight with him, it is now up to the prince's eldest daughter to maintain the peace between these two warring countries. • In which Catherine Glendower is made to marry Henry of Monmouth, heir to the English throne, and neither of them is happy about it. • ❝ Prequel to the upcoming 𝙫𝙚𝙣𝙞, 𝙫𝙞𝙙𝙞, 𝙫𝙞𝙘𝙞 trilogy ❞ { 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓼𝓪𝓰𝓪 𝓸𝓯 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝔀𝓮𝓼𝓽𝓮𝓻𝓷 𝓭𝓻𝓪𝓰𝓸𝓷𝓼 } ⌠𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 ⌡

    By marrying for love, Owen Tudor has put his own life jeopardy. The Dowager Queen of England would normally be completely out of reach for a humble knight, but ten years of marriage later Owen doesn't regret a thing. But, with the Queen dying, his own life is cheap when her teenage son, the new king of England, discovers his existence. Keeping his family safe is about to be more complicated than he ever imagined, especially when his stepson appears to accept him. Running away is easy, learning to trust the son of the man who murdered his father is far harder. Based on true events. (All the Hand in Hand books are tangentially related to the Violent Delights series, but are all stand alone, you can start reading anywhere with any of them and it'll make sense, if you want to go in chronological order the Violent Delights series is numbered. This one takes place in the mid 1400s) Trigger/Content Warning: a main character suffers from PTSD, and grief at the loss of a spouse. Significant character death. Some traumatic moments to do with family bonding may be unsettling for some readers. Rape is discussed. Homophobia is depicted and discussed. Some blood violence. Brief profanity. Peril to main characters may be unsettling. *Alcohol use throughout
