No Crowns, No Kings

Princess Marenna Vaux can dig a grave in nine minutes flat. Her family calls it a hobby. The rebellion calls it useful. Disguised as a common gravedigger, Marenna rides north to kill the woman leading the uprising — Dione Aurelian, blacksmith, traitor, and the most alive person Marenna has ever met. One week on the wrong side of a siege. Seven nights sharing a stable loft because there's nowhere else to sleep. Every deception makes it harder to draw the knife. On the eighth night, Dione learns who Marenna really is. What follows is a duel, a surrender, and a choice. Dione can have her rebellion or her enemy princess. Marenna has to stop letting other people make the decision for her. A passionate and thrilling fantasy romance about two women choosing the life nobody wrote down for them.
