Publisher's summary

They called her the Gladiator Queen, the first female heir to the throne of Norihame. Leyli never wanted this. But her cousin's scheming left no other option. He'd killed her brother, trying to claim the throne for himself, and sold her off to be a gladiator, hoping to get rid of her. It didn't work. Now, she'll do whatever it takes to make sure he can't destroy the country her family fought so hard to keep safe. Even a queen's number one job - she has to marry a noble and produce an heir.

On the sands of the arena, death was honest. Men fought for their lives and nothing else. In the palace, everything is different. The threats are veiled in fancy clothes and whispered rumors. Spies lie in wait around every corner, bribed with promises of power and wealth. Once, she thought this was normal. But no longer can she care about petty scandals, not when her citizens - her friends - are dying because of laws her family made.

To win this game, she has to keep her cousin far from succession. The best way is an heir of her own. She needs a noble husband who won't kill her in her sleep and - hopefully - one who will ignore the hulking shadow of her best friend turned bodyguard. She never expected Tristan to become a weapon that could be used against her. How much of her own happiness will she give up for Norihame?

Excellent Series with the Wolf and Lion!

I love this series! Following the storyline of the Wolf and Lion was very intense and heartwarming as well as joyful and romantic! The different characters interlaced within the three novels and that befriend them is extremely entertaining and gratifying to help them along their journey.

Good follow-up to book 1

I really liked this book. It continued to be an original storyline with the introduction of many new characters. I was downloading book 3 before the end of this book.

Absolutely loved this series

I first read the text version of this story. I absolutely LOVED the story, so much so that I purchased the text and audio versions.
Only downside to this is the narrators nasally voice. It doesn’t prevent you from enjoying the tale but it just irks me a bit.
I love how Auryn paints a picture. You know every detail without feeling like she fluffed the story.

Not as good the first

Looove the writing, romance and characters! Only negative i can think of is that the story lagged a bit in the middle. Not as good as the first but still an entertaining listen. I am now a fan of both Auryn Hadley and Justine Eyre 😄 I will be checking out her other series’ too after this!
