To maintain the fragile peace between north and south, Clarke of House Tyrell is sent to live in Winterfell as an act of faith between the two kingdoms. There, she is put under the protection of the first queen in the north, Queen Lexa of House Stark, Daughter of Wolves. A woman draped in steel and silver, wolves at her heels and rumoured to be a manifestation of the fury of the old gods; Clarke refuses to be awed be her quiet violence and cold smile. Instead of fostering unity, the meeting of the wolf and the rose lights a spark that spreads through the rest of Westeros, threatening to burn it to the ground.

Thank you all so much for reading, it’s meant more than I can say.
Epilogue
The day dawns cool and bright, sun shining in through the window of the ancient fortress, a familiar sight after all of these years. Summer is just beginning to raise her head again, after a long, hard winter, and Clarke can’t help but be glad for it. She is tired of waking to cold mornings and falling into her bed on cold evenings, heavy under piles of furs to try to stay warm. This particular morning, however, she has something else to keep her warm, and a small smile tilts at the corners of her lips as she burrows back into the body curled up behind her.
The hand thrown over her waist is as familiar as the sunlight gleaming in through the window, and she knows that when she twists within that grip to find the owner of that hand, she will grumble in her sleep and pull Clarke closer for just a few more moments of rest. The thought makes her heart warm, and she cannot bear to wait a moment longer to see that beautiful face and kiss those perfect lips.

My favorite kind of giveaway is a definitely f/f book giveaway.
I’ve decided to do my first ever giveaway featuring some of my favorite fantasy/science fiction books and even some that are coming out this year, or early next that I’m really excited for. Books that feature magic, dragons, warriors, amazing world building. Unexplainable creatures, or creatures from myths and legends. Books that transfer you to whole new universes, and retellings from familiar bedtime stories. The only thing they would have in common? It’s very gay.
Before I talk about the rules, I’m going to list the books that will be in the giveaway. I’ll be shipping anywhere Book Depository ships, so it will be an international giveaway.

Here’s what’s being given away:
Two books from any of the listed books
You have two chances to win. The first will be by reblogging and liking the post. You do not have to be following me. The last chance to enter - send me an ask with a book(s) you love, or a book you’re excited about that’s coming out soon.
I’ll be picking two winners. One from the actual post, the other from the asks. Both winners will receive two of these books on the list. Reblog as many times as you like, but no giveaway blogs allowed.
A winner will be picked with a random number generator on September 14th, 2019. It will close 11:59pm PST. I will be sending out a message to the winners the very next day so make sure your inbox or instant messenger is open. Must be okay with giving out your name and address. Again, I’ll be shipping anywhere Book Depository ships, so it will be international.
No giveaway blogs allowed.
For the ask entry, I’m going to limit it to just three asks. I will be answering them, so you also need to be okay with not being anonymous. Of course, anonymous messages won’t count since I need to see your username.
Instant messaging does not count, but if you have questions I will have it open.
If you win, you will have 48 hours to reply to my message before I pick another winner.
If you are a minor, please ask for your parent’s/guardian's permission before entering. You will have to give me your name and address if you win, and some of these books are adult novels.
If you have any questions, feel free to message me.
Good luck fellow book lovers.
