Headstrong Marian du Luc would rather traipse through Sherwood forest and spar with her family's antique sword than wear the fancy dresses and ribbons her mother favors. Nevertheless, she conforms to her mother's standards when her family is summoned to Nottingham Castle by the evil Prince John. Upon her arrival Marian is forced to endure the advances of the Sheriff of Nottingham while she secretly meets with the handsome outlaw 'Hood', who has captured her heart with his passion for justice. 
Court intrigue tangles Marian in its web when she discovers horrendous truths about Prince John and the sheriff, placing her life in jeopardy and forcing her to confront the hidden truths in her own family. Of course, everything would be easier if she wasn't head over heels with the one man the sheriff would risk anything, including the secret desire of the prince, to kill.All Rights Reserved

Lies of the Songbird: The Bride by RWHague

Disgraced Prince Gavin has one shot at redemption -- murdering an innocent girl. For payback. For revenge. For forgiveness. The reasons abound, but the mission remains the same. The blood of his kidnapped sister weighs heavy on the kingdom and, as the tragedy that befell her was the fault of Gavin, it's up to him to make it right. Told from the perspective of Gavin (aka Wren, his covert name) and the other members of his crew - an Academy graduate with something to prove, a sharpshooter with a broken voice, an assassin with a growing conscience - this novel mixes the intrigue of The Scarlet Pimpernel and The Count of Monte Cristo with a new twist on the Prince Charming tale.

Checkmate by emaguir3

The High Class of Europe. Or should I say the vampires? Everybody knows they exist, yet it is an unspoken rule to stay silent about them. You wouldn't want to risk one of them hearing you talk bad about them. The punishment for something as simple as that is unspeakable. The Vampires have built an empire from the dirt of London and have reigned for thousands of years. They continue to drag terror everywhere they step. Now in every high class, there's the low respected, middle of the pack, and the elites. Obviously, none are as interesting as the Elites of society. The cremé of the crop. Allow me to introduce you to Zara Delcour, Kaspian Auclair, Mackenzie Rousseau, and Nox Toussaint, the most powerful young adults of them all. And the great thing is? They're not going anywhere. But people are always looking for the next best thing or the next biggest deal. Alliances are formed. Threats are made. And it's all one big game of chess. + Due to harsh imagery, descriptive visuals, possible triggering moments, and certain mature themes in this novel, it is rated MATURE. There will be trigger warnings at the start of the chapters where mature scenes are held for those of you who would prefer to skip over them! (I cannot guarantee that you won't miss something crucial to the novel in those scenes.)

Into The Arms of Dusk by EctoplasmFountain

November nights are especially stricken with melancholy, as if the ghosts of all winter past come rushing to haunt her heart. She was a captive of her love, her desire, and her dreams. There's always a special quality to the loneliness of dusk, a sorrowness more infectious than the night. She had earned his trust. She had never strayed, betrayed, abandoned. She'd been stalwart, true, loving. To her, he was her everything. But to him, she was only a secret. He was a prince and she was merely his lover. • Dismount your high horse. come take claim of the girl you ruined. Come lay eyes upon the desolation you left in your wake. Do you not hear the devil at your shoulder sharpening his daggers? He sits heavy on your subconscious. Dauntingly smirking at me from afar. Enough of his wretched sins, speak to me with your eyes and perhaps somewhere, some day, at less miserable times, we may repent. In the arms of dusk.
