Publisher's Synopsis
From the world of Para-Military Recruiter: When they pull off her wig, it's game over. When three local bullies pick on Iron Hills dwarf Eiravel (Val) Stonehold, she naturally defends herself. Why is she the only one who gets thrown out of the tavern after the brawl? On her way home, two bumbling dragons in human form, Axl and Livius, accost her and hand her a letter. What can the new Eternal Queen Julie possibly want with her? As it turns out, the queen wants her body. Rather, she wants her fighting skills. Diplomats often need bodyguards, and Julie thinks Val fits the bill. One problem: Val knows little about the world beyond the Iron Hills. She has to learn more about the outside world to be effective. If she learns fast enough, she might save her employer's daughter from being abducted.
