Bastard

Rate this book
Finn was the second son who was never meant to become the crown prince. He was the lesser brother, the useless spare, even the rumoured bastard—at least according to his elder brother Henry, who destroyed everything, including himself, and Finn rose to the throne. Now, the memory of Henry still hangs heavy in the air, and his supporters linger in the shadows waiting to strike. It’s time for Finn to fight back.

For his people. For the future of his country. For his wife and daughter. For himself.

Yet, there are some who will fight dirty, fight with such cold, calculated viciousness, that the end is something no one saw coming.

How far will Finn go to protect the people and country he loves? Come visit Brazenbourg to find out.

This novel features royal families that love one another (even while they annoy or fight with each other), elements of suspense and politics, and a look behind fictional palace walls.

Note: This series is a duet, and this first book ends in a cliffhanger! This book also features sexy scenes and swearing. Emotional trigger warning: pregnancy.

Welcome to Brazenbourg, a small but mighty country nestled in the heart of Europe. Follow Prince Finn de Bara and his love, Arianna, former princess of Valleria, as they discover family secrets and battle for the future of Brazenbourg and their family.

Fabulous

Warning of the cliffhanger had me prepared for the next book in the series but it did not prepare me for just how exciting the cliffhanger ending would be. If you enjoy great suspense stories, you will enjoy Ms Knightly's Brazenbourg series.
