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?

Zara's brows pinched together. "Who's waiting for you?"
"Stark, and Kaspar," I said automatically, but in my head I saw my brother—now in his shirtsleeves—glowering at me about how she couldn't be in the passages. And he was absolutely right. If she was, she might run into him trying to get somewhere and that couldn't end well.
"Zara," I said quietly, looking at her hands in mine, "You can't go into the passages without me—not unless we've made arrangements. Not unless me or Stark tell you to. Unless… unless your life is in danger," I said, then met her eyes. "We have kept the secret of them for generations. We can't risk anyone finding out—not even the servants. Especially not the servants. You don't know your way, you don't know where it is safe to enter and exit. You simply can't."
Zara bit her lip and nodded. "I know. I'm sorry. I won't risk it again."
