Her Valiant Maiden (Sapphic Lady Knights Book 4)

Sir Lavinia has spent over a decade as the crown princess’s least-favored guard, desperately waiting for a chance to prove that behind her polished noble exterior lies a formidable warrior. When a diplomatic mission erupts into a violent ambush, Lavinia finds her world upended and is forced into an uneasy alliance with the one person she shouldn’t rely on: Sir Wren. Known as the Beast of Broadmoor, Wren is a battle-hardened knight living in the shadow of a career-ending injury that cost her an eye. She wanted a quiet retirement, not a treacherous trek across foreign mountains with a stubborn noble, a young princess, and an unexpected, fire-breathing stowaway. As the duo navigates rugged terrain and relentless foes, their initial friction begins to shift into a begrudging respect—and a searing, forbidden attraction. Caught between the scars of Wren’s past and the unsettling realization that their attackers may have been acting on orders from within the kingdom, the two knights must reconcile their opposing methods to survive. In this steamy, fairytale-inspired romance, duty and desire collide as Lavinia and Wren fight to deliver their charge to safety, discovering that the most dangerous enemies are often the ones closest to home.
