BLURB:
Mia Hammerstrike was always the meek, mild mannered, spare to the heir. But when her brother abdicates his position as heir to the throne of Alaria, she is faced with a decision—marry a man to rule her people or take on Queen Adrina’s Challenge so that she can someday rule the country herself. After all, why should gender decide her future? Granted, the broad shouldered, dreamy eyed barbarian sent to look after her during her quest makes her VoT glad she's of the female persuasion.
Barbarian Talon Starkweather made a promise a long time ago, and now he must make good on it. He must play bodyguard to his best friend's sister, a little princess on a big mission. There are those who want her to fail, but he vows to help the barbarian princess earn the right to rule. There's only one problem—while he's protecting the stubborn and insatiably lusty female, who is going to protect Talon from the one woman trying not only his patience but also his willpower?
Their journey leads to danger, passion, and a battle of wills, and both will find themselves Tested by the Night.

EXCERPT
Fav. Passage :
He nuzzled her neck again, and shivers of delight scampered up and down her spine, landing with a resounding thud right in the middle of her belly.
“When a starving man is set before a fine feast such as you, princess, he does not simply gobble his meal down and walk away. Oh, no, he savors every morsel of it, dines to near bursting, and thoroughly licks his plate clean afterward in appreciation.”

Tested by the Night by Maxine MansfieldMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Tested By The Night is a sexy, steamy and hot-wet read.
Set in a fantastic paranormal world, surrounded with dragons, gnomes, witchcraft, castles, we have a strong warrior and an independent princess, each one fighting their own demons, and at the same time drawn together by a really strong physical connection, their chemistry and sexual tension is hot, hot, hot.
The plot is fast paced, with good dialogues and a great fantastic world with interesting characters.
It's an enjoyable story, recommended for reading on lonely and loveless nights.
