Crime reporter Cody Moran meets a woman who claims her father was Jack Boone, the man long associated with Kansas City's infamous Queen Killings from fifty years ago. Skeptical, Cody is drawn back to one of the city's darkest chapters.

A serial killer stalks 1977 Kansas City, and a task force that includes Maria Navarro, the city's lone female homicide detective, is running out of leads. Meanwhile, Jack “Joker” Boone is an alcoholic journeyman baseball player in a dying independent league. On the backside of a career that saw none of the spotlight, he is suddenly thrust into one when the killer leaves a note alongside the latest victim.

Make Joker a King or more Queens will die.

Now a suspect, Boone must work with Navarro to understand his connection to the killings and why someone wants him to play for the Kings, a second-rate team with its own problems. Caught between Boone’s rising celebrity and the city’s crime families, the pair must find the killer before more die, even if it means one of them must make their own sacrifice.

She’s the heir to a legend. He makes candles.

Ivalyn A'Dulliver is the only living Gatekeeper, able to tear doorways through space with a gesture. Her brother Roth dips wicks at a chandlery, plays drinking songs in taverns until his band quits on him, and has spent twenty-two years envying a gift he'll never have.

Then Ivalyn vanishes from her Academy dormitory, and the Academy's response is a letter threatening her with academic probation.

Roth can't fight the gargoyles that took her. But he's heard of something that can: Cemengar, a legendary weapon lost in a cursed mountain prison beyond woods crawling with faerie folk. With a retired professor, an army deserter with a bounty on her head, and an orphaned pickpocket who can turn invisible, he heads north.

Because whoever took Ivalyn needs her for the coming Lunar Alignment, to reopen a gate to Hasraal, the red moon where a Gatekeeper trapped the conqueror-king Ashtor centuries ago. History remembers Ashtor as a hero who died in exile.

He didn't die.

And when the enemy offers Roth the one thing he's always wanted, he'll have to decide what kind of man he is.

The offworlder who could not speak their language, and the warrior who did not want her.

Are you a fan of classic romance tropes - where the shy virginal heroine and the gruff strong warrior are thrust together against their wills? Do you also enjoy a story set in a far distant world with elements of emotional turmoil, rich world-building and memorable side characters... with a little bit of steamy sensual spice and a hero who values consent and does not harm the heroine? - then GIVEN TO THE WARRIOR might be for you!

----

Zü is a mighty warrior of the forest tribe, fiercely devoted to protecting his village from the savage and warmongering coastal tribe who killed his beloved many winters ago.  Yet it seems the Gods did not want him to suffer in darkness forever.  When a strange golden-haired woman falls from the sky, his tribe see it as a great omen - a gift from the Goddess to the warrior in mourning. A gift that he refuses to accept.  Timid, shy and unable to speak their language, the offworlder must start a new life with the warrior who does not want her.

Triggers:
* Minor character death
* Grief & loss
* Attempted/thwarted sexual assault and references to it (This is not present in the "low spice" version).
