Princess of Thermopylae
The Thermopylae Bound Series, Book 1
By Belinda Harrison
This is Xena for the new generation with all subtlety around sex and violence as Game of Thrones or Spartacus.
Greece, 510BC
Skylar has spent the past six winters travelling throughout Attica and the Peloponnese assisting those who requested aid, her father her only companion.
Princess Alexis of Trachis has spent the past five winters with the fearsome tribe of Molossians in Epirus, honouring the alliance her betrothal formed.
Two women with nothing in common. But when Skylar saves Alexis’ life, an invisible bond is formed, igniting an undeniable attraction. Alexis’ intended husband may be fierce, but so is Skylar, and both are used to getting what they want.
In the fight for the princess, there can only be one winner. Can Skylar have Alexis or will old alliances win out?
