A Game of Death — Dominique Kristine

Trouble brews between Hindera and Fas Perra when skirmishes between the newly allied kingdoms' soldiers endanger their fragile truce. To worsen matters, two years after pledging his allegiance to their former enemy, Scion Etienne Dufresne discovers an assassin is targeting his relatives. Although he has abandoned his claim to the throne, loyalty to his homeland as well as Hindera's crown princess are all the reason he needs to return to Fas Perra. As Hindera's first female knight, Ser Raennia Cassi has dedicated her life to proving gender does not determine an individual's potential. When Princess Ysolde asks her to accompany the necromancer prince on his journey home she can't help but resent the interruption to her training-and fear an extended absence will leave the queen without her personal bodyguard. Together Raennia and Etienne must thwart the assassin after Fas Perra's royal family while also denying their growing attraction for each other. After all, a paladin of the goddess of life and a priest of the goddess of death can never find common ground. or can they?
