The Sting of Victory

S. D. Simper2018
"When faced with monstrosity, become the greater monster. The sting of victory will fade with time."Haunted by a history of horror and abuse, Flowridia, a witch with a tender heart, finds a second chance in the home of her kingdom's royal family. With employment comes friendship, and perhaps she has finally found a place to belong-until she catches the eye of Lady Ayla Darkleaf, a woman with enticing grace and a predatory smile. The corrupt world of politics consumes her, and Flowridia falls into a toxic love affair surely doomed for heartbreak. Yet when Ayla's legacy as a monster unfolds, Flowridia sees only the tender soul hiding beneath.An ancient deity returns, hell-bent on restoring the world to its natural order, and Flowridia's kingdom is tasked to stop him. Caught in the ensuing clash of gods, her loyalties will be tempted at every turn-by family, by fate, and by the woman whose claws grip her heart.Horror abounds, monsters rise, and hearts break in the first installment of FALLEN GODS.
