Laura R. Samotin Lure of Their Graves, The Paperback Book

Dimitri Abramovich may have won back the throne of NovoSvitsevo, but even after defeating his former husband, the usurper Alexey Balakin, he seems no closer to securing lasting peace for his people. Enemies are closing in on all sides, and pressure is mounting for Dimitri to play the one card he has left in a bid for stability offering his hand in marriage for a second time. But Dimitri is still healing from the tragedies of the war, his return to the throne, and Alexeys years of torment. Vasily Sokolov is the only person with whom he feels safe, and giving up the comfort of their budding relationship feels unfathomable, even if its the only way to sever the alliances being formed among the countries surrounding NovoSvitsevo. So as Dimitri and Vasily reckon with political treachery, the lasting consequences of Dimitris resurrection, and the sinister legacy of Alexeys use of the Holy Science, they must also work to understand what it means to love each other even as they prepare to let each other go which might prove the most difficult of all. | Laura R.
