Story5 out of 5 stars 5
Of all the codes they teach us… those of duty, honor, trust, loyalty… none ever speak of love. The story is well-known. A Lorcan princess, who died at the hands of a wicked prince. And the captain, whose quest for vengeance knew no bounds. But what if her death was an elaborate plot. Instead of murder, Princess Liza is taken captive by the cruel-hearted Prince Nicholi, with the reluctant assistance of Captain Erik. Focused entirely on his own aspirations, the prince demands Liza consent to become his rose bride, which would place both her eternal soul, and her kingdom, in his gasp.

Story5 out of 5 stars 4
Six hundred years ago, Mara, the immortal Captain of the Black Rose Guard, led her knights to their greatest victory: the annihilation of the Muir Court. For avenging a fallen princess, she was hailed a hero. Yet for Mara, the mirror reflected only a killer. Haunted by the slaughter carried out in the name of honor and duty, Mara hoped she had fought her last battle. But when knights of the Arum Court murdered her sub-captain, hope shattered and the blood roses began to bloom.

Publisher's Summary
Two heirs. One throne. Return to the land of Kale for the third installment in the Rise of the Temple Gods series and follow twin princesses Mariana and Ameria as their struggle for the crown divides not only their hearts, but the kingdom they strive to rule.
Named by her grandfather as the future Lady of Serenitas, Princess Ameria distinguishes herself as a ruler while, in secret, delving further into her family's shadowed past. What is the meaning behind the wraith's prophecy and how does it connect to the identity of her father's killer?
Seated on the throne as acting queen, Mariana struggles to navigate royal court politics while grappling with the possibility the man she considered a second father, Master Leo, may not have been the hero she once believed. To discover the truth, Mariana sends her trusted captain and love, Kyle, to meet with her sister, Princess Ameria.
Kyle is not without secrets of his own. Each night he endures the same dream. Two men, trapped in eternal mortal combat. And behind their clash of blades, a voice growling in the darkness: Beware the twins of Kale.

I loved it!
Another great book by K. L. Bone. This is a well written story. I enjoyed reading more about Mary and her sister. Kyle is an interesting character as well. The narrator does a great job telling the story.
