About this book
Betrayal cuts deeper than any blade, and Maren knows this better than anyone. After fleeing the outlaw shifters who once held her heart, she finds herself trapped in a gilded cage under the watchful eye of the dangerous Guy Gisbourne. He promises protection, but Maren knows a prison when she sees one. She is no longer the fragile girl waiting to be saved; she is a survivor ready to dismantle the systems keeping her shackled.
This addictive paranormal romance masterfully blends high-stakes tension with the found-family trope, pulling readers into a world where loyalty is a lethal currency. As Maren navigates the treacherous line between her former lovers and her new captor, she must decide which secrets are worth the cost of the crown. The stakes have never been higher, and the line between hero and villain continues to blur.
For fans of shifter sagas and royal intrigue, this installment delivers a gripping, fast-paced narrative that refuses to play by the rules. It is a story of reclamation, proving that even when the world expects you to be a pawn, you can choose to be the one who steals the entire kingdom. Prepare for a cliffhanger that will leave you desperate for the next chapter.

This series is way under hyped because it is genuinely SO GOOD!!! Book 2 ended on a cliffhanger and I cannot wait to go straight into book 3. )

Jade Evans' Princess of Thieves is the second book in the Shifters of Sherwood series. The story started slowly, and in the beginning, I found myself aggravated with Maren and some of her decisions.

The bruises faded away, why wouldn't the scar.🤔 I do like the idea of the story but there's gaps and plot holes and...

Can she save them, even if she can't forgive them? Will she ever be free? This book ends on yet another cliffhanger. I personally wanted more character development from...
