Guardian of Honor: Author's Preferred Edition

Marwey had ambitions - to become the chief of staff of the Marshall's Castle - the seat of power in her land. Until she saw Pascal, a poor Castle Soldier. But he's determined to become a Knight, and then a Marshall himself...years of danger on the battlefield, defending Lladrana from monstrous invaders. Sharing his life means sharing his danger, pairing with him and fighting as a Shield to his Sword. Then comes a new challenge, a woman from another land Marwey must help. Where does her destiny lie?

With their magic boundaries collapsing and flesh-eating monsters invading, the Marshalls of Lladrana follow ancient tradition and summon a savior from the Exotique land...

For Alexa Fitzwalter, the Marshalls' call drew the savvy Denver lawyer into a realm where she barely understood the language, let alone the intricacies of politics and power. Armed only with her wits, a mystical companion and the help of the chevalier Bastien, Alexa must use her mind and skills to fight inhuman monsters--and resist manipulation by the Marshalls to force her to stay in Lladrana.

Torn between her affinity for Lladrana and Earth, will she return home if given the chance? Or dare she risk battling the rest of her life for a land not her own?
