Destiny's Choice

A quest for peace, a kingdom at risk, and a fearless female knight—Destiny and Darkness continues.
The Southlands is a place of mystery. A hermit kingdom with which Ilirya has been at war for forty years and the home of monsters and living nightmares. But now it is Ilirya's only hope. Bold, brave lesbian Asher is among a small band of knights sent to achieve peace at any cost with the Southlands' mercurial leader, the King of Cats. With enemies howling at Ilirya's gates, failure will mean Asher's homeland will fall.
Each step deeper into the Southlands takes the knights farther into danger on a path full of darkness and impossible decisions. Asher must dig within to find a strength she didn't know she had and combat terrifying creatures she never imagined. But how high is too high a price for peace?
