The Sword And The Savage

Enemies turn to lovers as they unite against a man bent on purifying the world of savages, but what are they willing to sacrifice to save the ones they love?

When Lessiyara saves Ronan from a crumbling cliff, she reluctantly welcomes him into her camp. But having struggled to hide her secrets even among the emotionless Vaikahlen people, she fares no chance of hiding from a Soorahk man who understands the expressions on her face.

Having trekked up the mountain to kill Lessiyara's leader, Ronan eyes her warily. But his family and friends must be avenged, and the future of his tribe is at stake if he can't rejoin his Sword Siblings and take the Vaikahlen leader down.

When he learns the truth of her parentage and the bruises on her back, he realizes they may have a common goal. But just as a connection sparks between them, the coming battle threatens to tear them apart. Can they save the innocent lives in the valley from a man bent on 'purification?' Or will they pay for revenge with their blood?

The joy of found family weighs against the need for justice in this story of survival and self-expression, plumbing the depths of the human (or... not quite human) heart as enemies turn to lovers.
