THE CHOICE: My King or My Knight?
[COMPLETE] When Zara walked in on her boyfriend sleeping with another woman, she cursed God for the lack of good men in this miserable, modern world. Then she woke up in a romantic land of honorable Knights and the Royal Court. There, Zara is stunned to find herself one of eighteen women called The Select, from which the handsome, powerful King will choose his bride. She finds the magnetic King compelling. But her dashing Knight Defender has declared his love—and vows to save her from certain death: Tradition requires every woman in the Select who is not the King’s chosen bride to be executed to cover her family’s shame. Yet, the King is also making his intention to win Zara clear. None of this would matter if it was just a dream. But Zara is soon forced to accept that this is no fantasy. Which means each man—and his love—is real. And this world is a deadly nightmare. As the tension between the two men grows, Zara must make a choice. But how can a woman choose between a powerful King and a deadly Knight? Especially when either would kill to keep her? Are you #TeamKing or #TeamKnight?

As the night grew dark it found us in bed, languid and loose, drowsy, but not sleeping.
I didn't want to sleep.
Zara lay at my side, head on my shoulder, her leg curled over my thighs, her arm thrown over my chest. I trailed lazy fingers up and down her arm, staring into the simple rafters of this place that was never intended to house a King, but that clearly made Zara feel very comfortable and at home.
We hadn't spoken for several minutes, simply resting in the evening together.
It was, perhaps, the most peaceful moment of my life.
I lifted fingers to play through her hair and she sighed happily. "That's the most beautiful feeling. I've always loved it when someone played with my hair.
Making a mental note to do it more often, I turned my head to look at her, our noses bare inches apart.
