A princess facing a difficult decision...
Crown Princess Janet has refused every suitor that has come to ask her hand, and not because of Malcolm of Bonaparte! He is a friend and nothing more! She is the future of Avanna, a woman who wields substantial power both through position and her own magic abilities. She must choose carefully.
A warrior determined to protect what matters...
Malcolm will do what he must to protect the woman who has always been his closest friend. Even if that means lying to her- about who he is and what he feels. And when her family falls under a dark curse, he is the only one she can trust to get her to the Forest Tower, home of the ancient wizard, Merlin.
Dangers lie around every turn in the road and a former friend hunts them every step at the behest of a dark enemy. But the greatest danger lies ahead- a confrontation with an evil every bit as ancient and powerful as their salvation.
And beyond all that, Janet must contend with something she has spent years denying- her own heart.

Improper (Complete)
The girl smiled at her, not knowing who she was. "You look like a princess. You have nice hair and blue eyes that look like a dragon gave them to you." Princess Zahra gave a shaky laugh, wondering if the girl knew she had the same, glowing eyes as herself. "Well, I think you look like a princess too." She shook her head. "I don't want to be a princess. I want to be a warrior." --- Like any world, Rova is plagued with issues such as social disbalances, gender inequality and pirates. It is also included in a 20 year war. Zahra, the princess of Rova, is unaware of these problems because of her sheltered lifestyle within the palace walls. Her only worries are the temper of her little sister, Jaylyn, and the fear of disappointing her parents, the King and Queen. However, her views are tampered with as she is kidnapped and pulled into the lifestyle of pirates where she is exposed to the class discriminations, the poverty, magic and the raw power that people, especially women, can have when driven and determined. These new experiences also slap her into the reality that decisions have an impact and that she needs to learn to make them wisely. *** Also, please feel free to give constructive feedback and point out spelling or grammar mistakes.
