Books from the Backlog #125

 

Books from the Backlog is a fun way to feature some of those neglected books sitting on your bookshelf unread.  If you are anything like me, you might be surprised by some of the unread books hiding in your stacks. This is a fun meme hosted by Carole's Random Life in Books!

When magic dares, anything is possible.

Young, beautiful, and royal, Princess Arianne of the Deachair should be the most envied fae in all the realms. But tragedy stole a carefree life from her. Thrust into the role of ruler as a girl, she has spent the last decade struggling to keep her people safe at any cost. With her magic weakened by a devastating curse, strength, will and intelligence are her only powers left to wield. When the full force of the Moraine army marches on her palace, ready for war, she must act quickly to save her clan from total destruction.

As captain of the royal guard, Tearloch Donne considers the protection of the Moraine and their royal family his foremost duty. A duty he failed when a traitor within the palace ranks nearly assassinated the high prince. Now he will do whatever it takes to hunt the villain down and make him pay for his betrayal. But when he volunteers the enemy princess on a quest for answers, he finds himself weighing his duty to his clan against his growing feelings for her and a secret memory they share.

With the fate of two dying clans depending on their success, a proud princess with dangerous secrets and a loyal warrior bent on revenge must embark on a journey that could save them all… or destroy them both.

I added Tera Lynn Childs' When Magic Dares to my TBR pile in May of 2016! I believe this was yet another newsletter freebie she had and I thought it sounded interesting enough that I took her up on the download! And since it's on my kindle, I naturally have forgotten about its existence! One of these days I need to have a kindle book reading month...but I don't think I could go that long without reading a real book, so maybe I ought to change that to reading at least 1 kindle book a month, but then I end up getting caught up on a reading binge for a signing that involves all physical books or I get caught up on wanting to get caught up on another physical book series or I want to finish it. So yeah...kindle books get left behind.
