Horse Mistress, The: Book 1

My secret could save my people. It will also destroy my life. My name is Carivel. I was born female, but I've been secretly living as a boy in my adoptive village of Draebard, doing a job the elders insist could never be done by a woman. My life is complicated enough already, so the last thing I need is to fall for not one, but two unattainable men—a fierce warrior and a reluctant wolf-shifter with a horrific past. Now, with the powerful Alyrion Empire poised to invade our lands, I must choose whether to keep my secret or reveal it… not only to the men I love, but also to the powerful female ruler whose army could help protect Draebard during the coming war. Either way, strife is coming to our island. Win or lose, things are about to change irrevocably for the three of us. * * * The Horse Mistress by USA Today bestseller R. A.
