Defiant Queen

Keira thought she could survive being a pawn in Mount's dangerous world—until he shows her that nothing's ever that simple when power, desire, and vulnerability collide. She's determined not to fall for the man holding all the cards, but every charged moment between them proves that surrender might be her only choice. This second installment cranks up the tension and the heat as both characters grapple with feelings neither of them planned for in a world where the stakes keep climbing. If you love complex, obsessive romance with a morally gray antihero and a heroine who fights back, this is exactly the kind of addictive read that'll have you flying through the pages.
