Crown of Blood

*Originally 'Girl of the Moon'*

'From the moment I could walk I was trained like a warrior'.

All Alanis has ever known is the small harbor town kingdom she grew up in. Every day she prepared; scars, pain, everything in preparation for a war that the country is bracing for. Suddenly, her father changes everything, proposing a divergent idea to ensure the safety of his daughter and an heir to his throne.

14 princes.

1 heir.

3 secrets.

Finding herself stuck fast in the middle of a corrupt and sadistic game of kings and queens, finding her only salvation in the mysterious prince from her kingdom's biggest threat.

But Ronan has secrets of his own, and he seems intent on discovering what makes the Crown Princess of Camore tick. Frustrated and lonely, Alanis finds herself in a downward spiral of despair and deception, her only purpose, to be a pawn in a game of chess, useless until the owner plays her.

As Alanis becomes wrapped in lies and pain, she discovers that maybe her father's crown might not be one of joviality and peace, but one of blood and war.

Then again, they do day; all's fair in love and war...
