Shield of Sparrows Book 1

Odessa may have been the firstborn princess but has never the first chosen for anything. But when the prince of Turan arrived and declared a bride price and that bride was Odessa. Now her father is declared that she must spy for him. And if she could kill the Guardian. How will she be able to kill a man?

This is the first book in the Shield of Sparrow. Odessa may have been kept ignorant but she can is willing to learn. She is stronger than she even realizes and has a curious mind that can not help but ask questions. The Guardian can be frustrating and yet his banter is brilliant when he spars with Odessa. I loved this reading this book and can't wait to read the next in this series.

“The gods sent monsters to the five kingdoms to remind mortals they must kneel.

I’ve spent my life kneeling—to their will and to my father's. As a princess, my only duty is to wear the crown and obey the king.

I was never meant to rule. Never meant to fight. And I was never supposed to be the daughter who sealed an ancient treaty with her own blood.

But that changed the fateful day I stepped into my father’s throne room. The day a legendary monster hunter sailed to our shores. The day a prince ruined my life.

Now I’m crossing treacherous lands beside a warrior who despises me as much as I despise him—bound to a future I didn’t choose and a husband I barely know.

Everyone wants me to be something I’m not—a queen, a spy, a sacrifice.

But what if I refused the role chosen for me? What if I made my own rules? What if there’s power in being underestimated?

And what if—for the first time—I reached for it?”
