Fifth in the Paladin's Series: An offer of peace has shocked everyone, but the man to deliver it seems genuine and honest. A good man who follows the orders of a bad one. The city stirs and shakes and trapped within it, Addie is losing herself.

Being a spy is all that Addie knows, and she's good at it. She agreed to sacrifice any claims to glory, fame, or even basic recognition to serve her country. Having her body broken in the line of duty seemed inevitable. Now she's confined to a chair, stuck looking out at the world as it passes her by because, if she can't be a spy, who even if she?

Ferrant is the royal blacksmith and, though a self-sworn pacifist, he creates weapons and armor for the paladins. He equips them so they can protect themselves, so that they can protect their country. When he stumbles upon a paladin that he doesn't recognize, one that no one even knows exists, he wants to protect her as well, but when he hurts her, does he even have that right any longer?

An offer of peace, a broken paladin, and the blacksmith who just wants to see his friends and loved ones safe. This could be the chance to finally end the war that has plagued their people, if the city doesn't collapse under its own shadowy weight.All Rights Reserved

On a mission to discover why she has gone missing and what she discovered, Felicie Medee is sent into Lloegyr to discover what Gascony is planning.

Lady Paladin Felicie seems to be just as ridiculous as his persona and he can't understand why people are so concerned about her. Until he finds himself pitted against her real power and purpose. Lloegyr is neutral in the war, all three countries have made the agreement. But Felicie has to find what happened to her sister paladin while trying to discover what Gascony is planning all the while fighting against the first man that has ever been her equal.

War is on the horizon, and thousands of lives are at stake. Colette has never lost a fight before, she certainly doesn't plan on losing a war. But she has never been in a real batter before.

Elaine's Revenge by Talia_Rhea

Third in the Paladins Series: Winter has come and, with it, brought a much needed lull in the war. However, on the peaceful border between Vasconia and Lloegyr, pirates have begun raiding in the absence of soldiers to protect the town. Lord Odilon Yvain, leader of the largest trading company in the kingdom, finds himself the target of these unseasonable pirate attacks. To protect his people, and to continue serving his king, he is sent to find and recruit the rogue paladin. Elaine Honorine separated herself from the paladins years ago, focusing all of her time on the singular goal of finding Pirate Blue Bird. When Odilon and Nina, leader of the paladins, offer her the information on where Blue Bird makes port, she unwillingly accepts their aid. But the lull in the war does not mean the battles have stopped, and Blue Bird is the scourge of two generations. As they journey together, Odilon finds himself equally fascinated and annoyed by the rogue paladin and her endless supply of secrets, lies, and fierce, foolish independence.

The Duchesses by silviaaaclaira

Aurora opens her eyes only to feel the agonising pain in her body. That is to be expected when there has been an accident. It's excruciatingly painful. Aurora groans in pain and pulls off the blanket, taking in her surroundings. It is more appropriate for a hospital interior design to look to the mediaeval era. Not shabby, but more on the extravagant side. The nurses' attire, on the other hand, appears odd. Someone said out of nowhere, "Her Grace, please wake up! Call the doctor right away!" Aurora approaches the mirror and looks at the woman with deep red eyes in it. The woman had blonde hair that, while a little messy, flowed perfectly over her shoulder. Her fair complexion lends her an ethereal appearance. Not to mention that her outfits make her look like a noblewoman from a historical series. She pinches herself, only to realise that the blonde woman staring at her is herself. A thought struck her mind, as she utters her first statement in this world, "Fuck me". Medea has finished her work, but she is still unsure how to fix all of the messes. She hasn't been herself in a long time, and it's bothering her. The throne seems so far away, and the weight of the burden grows heavier with each passing day. A letter from the Imperial Palace has arrived, instructing the Duchess to look after the House of Smith's Duchess of Light, Natalie Wilson Smith. As an evil scheme was about to unfold, she smiled wickedly. 'This is my new card.' p/s: I can't find the original owner of the photo of the cover, if you know or you are the owner of the cover.

Partisan - Book II by azimodo

*COMPLETE* "People don't believe in us anymore. They don't believe that in the end we will do what is right. We can't let them down. We can't let Ben win." Decisions made on top of the lonely, wind-swept cliff of Lethinor reverberate around the five kingdoms as war begins in earnest. This is a sequel to Paragon, it's my very, very, very strong recommendation you read it first, otherwise you will be totally lost. I am not joking. If your interest is piqued, here's a quick blurb for Paragon: _____________________ There are whispers across the kingdoms that the Paragon, that strangely gifted person who can wield all four Skills, has been found. They're wrong, of course. No one has caught the Paragon. Allayria should know: she's it. But Allayria doesn't want to be the Paragon, and in her pursuit of freedom she finds herself enmeshed in a web of lies, caught in a group who might be even more dangerous than she could have imagined. _____________________ You can read Paragon here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/95374969-paragon Highest ranking: #86 in Fantasy 2/10/2018 WIP Cover art and written work by Azi.

Secrets of the Swords, Book 1 by lavenderstar

Acting normal is not the same as being normal. No one knows that truth better than Suthe Montikwe. Born with the unlucky genes of a distant druith ancestor, she's had to hide her talents in order not to be outcast by society. Her strategy is to smile, keep quiet, and work hard. While that method may keep her safe, it's also alienated her from her neighbors and friends, and the worry that she may be discovered is never far from her thoughts. When her country sends out a warrant to capture anyone who practices magic, Suthe is forced to seek refuge elsewhere, all the while wondering at the sudden proclamation. Why has the government taken an interest in her, and when will she be able to return home? Unsatisfied with her lack of answers, Suthe decides to investigate. But the more she looks, the deeper she gets herself into trouble, and she comes to realize that this mystery does not involve her country alone. The threat of war looms on the horizon, and Suthe will need to put her trust in the strangers she meets, including a dangerous spy wanted for the betrayal of his own country. But most importantly, Suthe will need to trust herself, and her abilities, if she ever wants to see home again. ~*~Current cover by Amanda-Mae ~*~ ~*~Previous cover by italychick~*~
