I'm their lover. Their grenade. And grenades explode.

Outside, a quiet war wages between two fractured countries.

Inside, I have been blasted by my own explosion. Torn into pieces.

I am a protector - for her.

A lover - to both.

A traitor - to all.

We have all been on our knees at the feet of someone else. We have all spent nights escaping in our shared beds.

We all want to wear this tarnished crown.

Blair. Isaac.

And me - the grenade.

Grenade is the second book in the Tarnished Crown Trilogy.
