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?

Emory frowned. "You didn't know? Zara, he'd been hunting them since the day you were hurt. He stopped ignoring them. They'd only found a few, but it was becoming very clear that he had the Arinel equivalent of a task force out—and they were killing anyone they could prove had connections. That's why I was so tense. I was certain I was next! He gave me so much attention I thought he had to be onto me. And I'm not like you. I can't go back there at will. So if he killed me there and I was useless to them here… shit. This is even worse than I thought."
"This makes no sense—you're saying David was eradicating them. But he kept you?" Then I remembered and gave a dry, humorless laugh. "Of course he kept you. I'm so stupid…" I shook my head, trying to deny the spear of pain slicing through me. "He kept me when he wasn't supposed to, of course he'd keep you too."
Emory was watching me like she wasn't quite sure what she was seeing.
