Book excerpt: Step into the second in the epic and magical Kingdom of Lies series . . . -- After fleeing from everything I knew and loved, and hiding in plain sight in a deceitful court, I am now faced with Lorian’s truth. He is no mercenary . . . He is known as the Bloodthirsty Prince. His reign of terror has left a trail of blood across this continent. A trail that intertwines with my own past – not even my parents were spared from his merciless slaughter. But, to save my brother’s life, I agreed to another bargain with the fae prince. Now, I’m forced to work with him. Forced to travel to the fae lands. There are no lines I won’t cross to protect the people I love. So, I’ll manipulate, blackmail and deceive potential allies. I’ll bury my shattered heart and cooperate with the fae to prepare for the coming war. Because I now know that there are creatures far more monstrous than the fae. And some of them masquerade as men . . .
