A bounty hunter meets a denounced nobleman.
In her world, Wren Romany is as unconventional as they come. Born to a large, devout family and then forced out to fend on her own, she earns her living as a bounty hunter. As her second winter alone looms, she decides to stay in one place for the season. Seeking shelter, she offers her hunting skills in exchange.
Tourth Mynth, the master of the ruined fortress in the valley, needs help. His small household faces a hard winter. As son of a disenfranchised noble, he has plenty of space beneath his roof, but not much to eat. Wren’s offer seems a good fit.
Wren soon learns the residents of Iselyn need more than simply meat on their table. The valley’s residents squirm beneath a harsh master. Unsolved murder and betrayal lurk in the Mynths’ not so distant past. And Tourth’s battle with his emotional scars from the recent civil war will determine the fate of the whole valley.

Tifferz Take-
Wren is an intriguing story of a women bounty hunter with
serious skills. She can totally take care of herself and others she cares for.
I would want her as my friend. Wren
comes upon Tourth by word of mouth. You see Wren wants a place to settle for
the upcoming winter months. That is where Tourth comes in. He is in need of her
hunting skills. So, they make a trade hunting and help for room and board. Then
we are introduced to Kat, Svhen, Arthus and Dardon a wonderful supporting cast. Tourth has a past
that is haunting him. Wren speaks her mind and that rubs Tourth the wrong way.
Now the Enforcer is taxing everyone and
building up his army. Now, this story
had everything danger, murder, broken trust, secrets, treason. Along with friendship, loyalty, sweet romance and
the element of surprise! I was entrapped in what would happen next. One of my
favorite parts is Wren is climbing the tree in a dress and after had to get
information on what a soldier wanted and Arthus said she couldn’t go because
she could not act like a lady. It just
made me laugh as she changed her whole domineer and became a lady before his
eyes. Some great dialogue as well in this read. I would recommend you pick it
up for yourself. I sure hope Ms. Rossano
writes Adien and Krystalyn’s story. It would be fun to know what one of Wren’s
brothers were up to.
JUST
FYI- This story contains NO swearing or sexual situations!
