The Price of Surrender

by D.L. Warner

Rage and Regret Prince Armas of Ritvala was not accustomed to being denied his way especially with women. He had never met the likes of the beautiful and willful Sarianna of Arinpera. His pursuit of her hand and her kingdom against the wishes of his father and the half brother who had won her, cost him his standing as Prince, son and brother. His alliance with the treacherous Queen Taraasta struck a chasm between him and all he had known. Almost immediately, Armas knew he had made a terrible mistake. Redemption and Reconciliation More than six years pass. Armas grew tired of his life of leisure and sets about using his skills as a ruler to bring Taraasta's kingdom back to its former glory. Unfortunately for Armas, the efforts put power in the grasp of the late King's family -- something Taraasta will do anything to prevent. The assassins ride again this time after Armas himself. He eludes them once. But the second battle nearly ends his life as he tries desperately to save then Queen Sarianna, her family and a beguiling beauty with them from the black arrows. Love and Light Armas finds healing of body and spirit in his brother's home. He also finds love from the lovely Princess he saved from death. But his peril and that of his family is not over. Taraasta does not like to thwarted and Arinpera has thwarted her one time too often. Can such a peaceful kingdom fend off the powerful evil hidden amongst them? Will Armas' mistake take away all he had gained forever this time? Can the prophecy really save them all?
