Bestselling author Jennifer Estep continues her Gargoyle Queen epic fantasy series where magic reigns, alliances are tested, and a dangerous attraction could tear down a throne. . . Crown princess. Clever spy. Powerful mind magier. Gemma Ripley of Andvari is all those things-and determined to stop an enemy from using magical tearstone weapons to conquer her kingdom. Gemma' s quest for answers leads her to a trade Summit between the various kingdoms. Among the other royals in attendance is Queen Maeven Morricone of Morta and her son, Prince Leonidas-Gemma' s charming and dangerous nemesis. Gemma knows that Maeven always has a long game in motion, and sure enough, the cunning queen invokes an arcane tradition that threatens the fragile truce between Andvari and the other kingdoms. Despite her best intentions, Gemma once again finds herself thrown together with Leo and battling her growing feelings for the enemy prince. When a series of deadly attacks shatters the Summit' s peaceful negotiations, Gemma realizes that someone wants to tear the royals down from their thrones-and that this enemy just might succeed.
"Pretty princess + dangerous spy, that' s Gemma Ripley. She does both with equal panache. Tracking a missing batch of magical tearstone leads Gemma into the heart of a hostile kingdom, the presence of a mortal enemy, and heart-pounding danger. This is action at its finest. " -- #1 New York Times bestselling author Charlaine Harris on Capture the Crown "Bestseller Estep returns to the world of gargoyles, mind magiers, and political intrigue first conjured in the Crown of Shards series with this romantic and exciting fantasy adventure, the first in her Gargoyle Queen Trilogy. . . the gripping romp flies, like Grimley, Gemma' s beloved gargoyle, at a breakneck speed that will keep readers turning pages. " -- Publishers Weekly on Capture the Crown "Estep' s new series takes readers back to the world she built in Crown of Shards, filled once again with exciting machinations and a slow burn of romance. " -- Library Journal on Capture the Crown "Capture the Crown is an exciting, strong series starter that fans and new readers alike will enjoy. " -- Booklist "Action, magic, danger, and romance-a thrilling read from start to finish! Gemma Ripley is my favorite kind of heroine-smart, courageous, fierce, spirited, flawed, and full of heart. The Gargoyle Queen will capture yours!" -- Amanda Bouchet, USA Today bestselling author of The Kingmaker Chronicles "Hold onto your hearts, fantasy romance lovers! Because you' re going to lose them to the deliciously smexy new bad boy prince in Capture the Crown. Jennifer Estep has outdone herself in penning my new favorite book of hers. Prince Leonidas is everything I could ask for-and Princess Gemma as a spy in a deadly waltz with him had me devouring the pages. " -- Jeffe Kennedy, author of the Forgotten Empires, Heirs of Magic and Bonds of Magic romantic fantasy series. "Kill the Queen is the definition of epic fantasy: exciting, original, and filled with characters who jump off the page. Jennifer Estep enters the arena and takes no prisoners. Long live the Winter Queen. " -- Ilona Andrews, #1 New York Times bestselling author "Imaginative. " -- Wall Street Journal "Betrayal put Everleigh Blair on the throne and treachery threatens to take her off. But Queen Everleigh survives the dangerous and vindictive courtly world and emerges a true Winter Queen - this is a gripping tale of one woman' s survival and triumph. " -- Julia London, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Princess Plan "Jennifer Estep' s Kill the Queen is the fierce, feminist kick-off of a great new fantasy series. . . a sweeping, addictive adventure with a tiny hint of romance that will leave readers clamoring for more of this universe as soon as they reach the last page.
