Moonlight and the Monarch - The Moonlight Curse, #2 - E-book - ePub

The exciting adventures of The Moonlight Curse series continues when family loyalty comes up against love. Brand's curse remains, his family estranged, and his carefully constructed plan gone ridiculously awry. He's fallen head over heels for the powerful mage and temperamental socialite, Valentino Vicari, the descendant of the witch who cast a dark curse on his family. Is Brand prepared to give up everything, crown and consequences be damned, for an excellent pair of legs and a scalding tongue? The decision is taken from him when Brand and Valentino are captured by agents of Brand's father, the ruthless King Lykanos, and the newly built trust between them is shattered.
Valentino is forcefully conscripted, thrown into yet another unwanted engagement, his precious pride rubbed in the dirt and stomped on. Left feeling utterly betrayed and powerless without his magic, Valentino can't help but hope that, somehow, he'll get a chance to burn the whole castle to ashes and escape. Will his fledgling relationship with Brand survive the fallout? Brand will have to think two steps ahead of his watchful father, enlist the help of some unlikely allies, and climb through a couple of sewer pipes to scheme his way out of the castle and back into Valentino's heart. Family drama, trouble-making ex-lovers, and political intrigue provide the backdrop for a test of our heroes' newfound love amidst the rising tide of war in this second installment in the series.
