To the release of my debut historical fantasy romance!
I was invited to write a novella for an anthology with five other authors. The only requirement for my story was I had to include 6 words:
Medallion
Betrayal
Flag
Traitor
Voyage
Lawless
I chose to set my story in Persia, circa 400 BC

What it’s about:
The ancient kingdom of Bithynia is in turmoil. Their beloved king has died. His only child and heir is young, female, and unmarried.

Shadi has been raised to take the throne, but her council doubts her fitness to rule. They want her to marry–a man of their choosing. But Shadi has plans and dreams of her own.

They plan a contest, a series of challenges to test the strength, wisdom, and courage of the men who flock to the capital, hoping to win her hand.
But there is one man, constant, protective, and true, though he is not one of the contestants.
During the contest, her people are threatened, Shadi must act. And her faithful Captain is by her side.


Is the greatest treasure in the coveted crown? Or is it hidden deep in the heart of a hero?
