Freedom's gambit comes at a heavy price.

Brian, a once normal teenager, is now deemed a highly dangerous convict. Most of his teenage years being a blur, only remembering snippets of his past since the war started. Aside from constantly fearing for his life, he was just like any other person, or so he thought. The number of mutilated bodies and the blood dripping from his fingertips proved otherwise.

With the war over and the new government claiming total control of the population. The game of kings has found its place in history once more. Upon Brian's capture, he's shocked to learn about being given a second chance following the crimes he's accused of. Still, he capitalizes on the opportunity hoping to make things right or go out in a blaze of glory of his own making.

As Brian's life hangs in the balance, there's more at work in the city's shadows. Work that the government struggles to combat, resulting in a sea of red painting the footsteps of the mysterious resistance leader, the scarlet Queen.

***WINNER of the "BREATHTAKING: A FANTASY AND SCIENCE FICTION NOVEL WRITING COMPETITION!" "You are a secret kept from the world, but not from me." So begins the peculiar message found slipped under a bedroom door on the morning of May first. Theo is the heir to a powerful dictatorship. The number of people allowed to know he exists is few. He has spent his entire life walled up in the Tower, the looming stone monolith from which his father rules over the Land. Merryn is the daughter of political prisoners. She's known who Theo is longer than he would think possible, and she is taking a great risk contacting him via handwritten notes in order to convince him he deserves more than the fate his father has designed for him. She has one month to exchange daily messages with him, to answer his questions and open his eyes to the realities of a world he has never been allowed to see. A revolution is coming to the Land at the end of the month, and if Merryn's notes fail to get their point across, Theo may never live to see the sunrise on June first. A/N: The following letters were originally published each day from May 1st-31st, 2014. As you will see,Theo is allowed to write down a question for Merryn each evening, but you, the reader, won't see these within the body of the story. It may or may not be obvious from Merryn's response what Theo is asking. Part of the fun is guessing what his questions might be, but if you really want to know what they are, a list of those questions is at the end of the story. This story is a re-imagining of Rapunzel. Now, without further ado-I believe a young heir is about to unfold a slip of paper found on the tile floor near his door... Let's see what it says!

"You think you've got me all figured out, don't you?" I say, my tone sharp as I glare up at him. Archer's lips curve into a faint smirk. "I don't need to figure you out. I already know your type." "Oh, do you?" I step closer, challenging him. "Enlighten me." His eyes darken as he leans down, his voice husky. "Reckless. Self-destructive. You'd run into flames just to prove you don't burn." "And you're the hero who thinks he can save me?" I shoot back, fists clenching. "No," he says evenly, his gaze boring into mine. "I'm the one who'll let you burn." *** When you've hit rock bottom, there's nowhere to go but up...or so they say. For Erin Carter, rock bottom looks like a past she can't escape and a future that seems impossible. Pulled from her prison sentence by a government agency, Erin's given the chance to prove she's more than her rocky past. But trust doesn't come easy, and neither does redemption- especially when her sharp tongue and fiery temper get her into trouble at every turn. For Archer Hayes, failure isn't an option. As one of the agency's top operatives, his life revolves around order and precision- two things that go out the window when Erin is thrown into his world. With a shared history he'd rather forget and a mission that could destroy them both, Archer is forced to confront the one thing he can't control: her.
