In the Name of Pride
By Courtney & Clarke Collins

IN THE NAME OF PRIDE is the highly anticipated sequel in the award-winning Vows & Valor adult fantasy trilogy, where the one place Kaleela always wanted to be is now the one place she can’t escape. Dimitar must find a way to overcome his inner demons and reach Kaleela before she’s trapped under an exile’s incessant grip, and they lose each other forever. This sequel delves into bodily autonomy, mental health issues, found family, separation, and above all: unrelenting determination. Perfect for readers who enjoy yearning bordering on agony, a man who goes to medieval therapy, a kidnapped princess fueled by spite, some babybel cheese, and a villain who will awaken unfathomable depths of rage in you.
