This barbarian warlord romance is gritty and by far the darkest in the Xiveri Mates universe, containing multiple violent scenes - including acts by the hero against the heroine. It is a complete standalone that can be read at any point and, as ever, comes with fighting heroine who ensnares the villain and a guaranteed HEA.</em></p>
