3 Ways Minstrel’s Serenade is like Game of Thrones and 3 Ways it’s not!

Alike

1. There are dragons, zombies, and warriors! (Although the zombies are stories from the past. The real threat in this book is the dragons.) 
2. Epic battles abound. (Not kingdom against kingdom- people against dragons!)
3. Marriages are for political reasons. (Which is the central romantic conflict through the story.)

Not Alike 

1. There are no prostitutes and no one’s running around naked. (Thank goodness!)
2. The dragons are already taking out towns in the beginning. (No waiting around.)
3. No dogs are killed. (Thank goodness again!)

Minstrel's Serenade

 He’s sworn to protect her, but can he save her from himself?

Danika Rubystone has hated the minstrels ever since her mother ran away with one. As Princess, she’s duty bound to marry Valorian, a minstrel from the House of Song. But problems in the kingdom are mounting.

With her father dead she’s the sole heir to an imperiled throne, and wyverns attack Ebonvale’s southern shores. But after Danika finds a lone survivor of a wyvern’s attack who holds the key to protecting the kingdom and she finally meets the enchantingly sly Valorian, everything changes.

As Ebonvale’s Royal Guard sails with the minstrels to smite the uprising of wyverns, Danika dances a line between sticking by duty like her father, or following her wild heart like her mother.
