[COMPLETE] When Zara walked in on her boyfriend sleeping with another woman, she cursed God for the lack of good men in this miserable, modern world. Then she woke up in a romantic land of honorable Knights and the Royal Court. 

There, Zara is stunned to find herself one of eighteen women called The Select, from which the handsome, powerful King will choose his bride. 

She finds the magnetic King compelling. But her dashing Knight Defender has declared his love—and vows to save her from certain death: Tradition requires every woman in the Select who is not the King’s chosen bride to be executed to cover her family’s shame. Yet, the King is also making his intention to win Zara clear. 

None of this would matter if it was just a dream. But Zara is soon forced to accept that this is no fantasy. Which means each man—and his love—is real. And this world is a deadly nightmare. 

As the tension between the two men grows, Zara must make a choice. But how can a woman choose between a powerful King and a deadly Knight? Especially when either would kill to keep her?

Are you #TeamKing or #TeamKnight?

THE CHOICE: My King or My Knight?

We'd been keeping odd hours, our schedule slowly moving more and more towards nocturnal. I felt less secure at night—the woods more likely to hide eyes I couldn't see, or activity I couldn't detect.

Slowly over the course of the week, we'd slept more and more during the day, until we were eating breakfast at dusk, lunch at midnight, and dinner before dawn. And without speaking it, I'd become her Defender. A role that she seemed relieved to let me fill.

Lizbeth had been particularly tired this morning when the sun finally rose and we both moved to the bedroom for sleep. I wasn't even pretending to keep the separate bedroom anymore. I'd pulled a cot out of the closet in this place and set it up on the floor next to her bed. Because Lizbeth didn't sleep unless I was near and watching.
