Defy

Alex is the best swordsman of the Prince of Antion's guard. He and his twin brother fight side by side to protect the arrogant prince. Antion is a place in perpetual war where women are used to breed new soldiers. Alex hates the cruel king and his son. Oh, wait, Alex is really Alexa, who has been hiding that she is a girl so she is not sent to the breeding house after her parent's murder. But Prince Damian is starting to look at her funny. And he starts having cryptic conversations with her. Alexa doesn't know what to make of the this change, but finds herself changing her opinion of Damian. When they are kidnapped by a Blevonese sorcerer, Alexa must figure out what is really going on and how involved Damian is with their supposed enemies. Along for the ride is Rylan, who has always known Alexa is a girl and has feelings of his own for her. Alexa has to decide if she wants to trust Damian even as she finds herself falling in love with him. He is one big secret after the next AND the future king of Antion. What could become of a King and his guard- certainly not a royal marriage. And what of Rylan and his feelings? Meanwhile, this rag tag group must complete a near impossible plan to overthrow the evil King and his sorcerer. Many will lost their lives in this endeavor, but will it work? Will there be a happily ever after for anyone? This is a great adventure filled with romance and lots of sword fighting. Alexa is a strong. powerful warrior who doesn't rely on anyone. Damian is a dashing prince, determined to save his people. And the story of course, leaves us waiting for the next one. 2 days until summer vacation. Can't wait! Happy reading my friends!
