When Monsters Wear Crowns

Gabrielle_Sanon
She is the most powerful warrior in the land, revered as a god by many. But even gods can be brought to their knees.  Nineteen-year-old Lura is now Grand General. The entire Calidonican army is at her command. The only person she has to answer to is the king who forged her into the sharpest blade. With inhuman powers, many believe she has nothing and no one to fear… But they know nothing of the truth of her childhood. It wasn’t the glamorous life of a princess raised by a loving father, but the cold, unrelenting childhood of someone raised to be nothing more than a tool. She was a murderess by age ten.  A soldier by age fourteen.  At nineteen she is a woman who will no longer be used. When a foreign prince — her best friend — arrives in Calidonica unannounced, she realizes their lives are about to diverge forever.  What they won’t admit is their relationship is the only thing that makes them feel human. When they realize there’s a way to defy fate AND free Lura, they team up for one final battle—  the battle for the throne. Because if Lura is Queen, no one can ever use her again.
