Description:
He's my mate, or my murderer. That is, if I don't kill him first. The former Captain of the High King's Guard, Lymseia Wynterliff has never been one for politics. But when the High King tasks her with a diplomatic mission forcing her to return home to Illnamoor-the capital of the Steel Court-she begrudgingly accepts. The High King needs someone he can trust, and Lymseia's the only one for the job. But all it takes is one ambush to ruin everything. With the blood of her men on her hands, Lymseia has no choice but to go along with her kidnapper's demands. Only, her enemy isn't at all who she expects. Her kidnapper, and the one to blame for the ambush, is the one and only heir-apparent to the Silver Court: Asheros Larmanne. Her fated. Mysterious and cunning, Asheros stands in the way of her duty. He has an agenda of his own, and that sly grin of his only further conceals his intentions. When hostilities rise between the five Courts, threatening to reforge centuries-old alliances, it becomes all too clear that someone is orchestrating the turmoil that's spreading like wildfire. Maybe, with Asheros's help, Lymseia can uncover the orchestrator's identity, and end this before it's too late. But if Lymseia's trust in her captor is misaligned, her kingdom will shatter around her. A Shattered Kingdom of Steel is the second book in the Of Metals and Curses series, featuring rivals-to-lovers romance, fated mates, forced proximity, and plot twists you'll never see coming, perfect for readers that enjoy fantasy romance. Each book in the series features one couple, a HEA, and an overarching plot that builds with each installment. Any cliffhangers pertain to the continuing plot, and not the couple's love story. For the best experience, it is recommended that the series be read in order.
