Ignite the Firelight

QUEEN X ROYAL GUARD IN FANTASY ROMANCE

Nineteen year-old Queen Alethea of Endora, a kingdom in the continent of Verenthia, is entering the second year of her tenure. With the burden to redeem the royal family's reputation after the corrupt reign of her grandfather, she must face rumors of the mythical Zyvens, a human race imbued with magical powers, springing back into existence through a series of planned attacks across the Endoran Capital City.

After saving the queen from one such attack, Darien Freynard is named her personal guard and swears an unbreakable oath to protect her, and maybe with a little desire to kill her too. Between a queen trying to serve her people and her guard mirroring her every step, a forbidden desire inevitably brews, igniting a fire neither can ignore.

But duty and desire collide when one of them must confront the dark, hidden truth that could determine the fate of Verenthia, and discover whether their condemned entanglement may be the key to the realm's survival.

In a court brimming with whispered betrayals, ambition, and outlawed magic capable of tipping the balance of power, Alethea and her loyal guard must trust only their instincts and decide if their passion will become salvation...or ruin.
