"...the best book yet. I was so in love with the story I couldn't put it down." - Paranormal Romance and Authors That Rock

Danann, tells the long awaited story of the conflict between the kingdom of Irish elves and the kingdom of Scotia fae. Romeo and Juliet retold with the most delicious HEA ever.

"What do you know about my sister and that prancin' prick of a fairy prince?" - Rammel Hawking

Duff Torquil is heir to Scotia, the kingdom of Fae, who have been at war with the Elves for two thousand years. Fae and Elves are both species who have evolved to respond to one fated lover with whom they will mate for life. Duff Torquil's predestined mate is perfect for him in every way: beautiful, smart, polished, strong willed and a talented psychic who works for The Order of the Black Swan. The only problem is that she also happens to be Aelsong Hawking, talented Black Swan psychic, younger sister of the famous vampire hunter, Sir Rammel Hawking, AND the only daughter of the royal house of Elves. After escaping together to establish a quiet obscure life away from both families and the political differences between elves and fae, the young lovers are captured, separated, secluded, and left to die as mated pairs of their species tend to do when permanently parted. Fortunately, an angelic intervention persuades the unlikely "powers that be" to get involved and the couple embarks on an epic journey through alternate dimensions that know no limits.

Get it TODAY and find out why readers have called it charming, swoon-worthy, and HEA at its finest.

Victoria's signature humor ("Everybody was staring at me because I was on the subway in fits of laughter and couldn't stop!") creeps into each and every book whether she intends it or not. But the heart of Victoria's books is romance, the real kind that often begins with slow burn then lasts and lingers like a charge in the air. Forever.

The rich characterizations and quirky personalities that readers so often comment about come from being a lifelong student of behavior - casually (love to people watch), and a serious student of behavior academically. She has also studied comparative religion, myths, and Dark Ages history.

Victoria lives in The Woodlands, Texas with her husband and a very smart, mostly black German Shepherd dog.

Loved loved this series. It has everything you could want in a fantasy story. Every book you read you think the next book can't get any better but it does. I'm on to the next one now. I'm lucky I bought the whole series. I highly recommend you get them too.

A TALE OF TWO KINGDOMS

A Tale of Two Kingdoms is book 6 in the Knights of the Black Swan. The books should be read in order- My Familiar Stranger, The Witch's Dream, A Summoner's Tale, Moonlight, and Gathering Storm. I think you will fall as much in love with this series as I have.

What would you be willing to give up for love- your family, your country, the crown? Perhaps even harder, would you be willing to disregard centuries of hate and mistrust? What would you be willing to suffer for love- imprisonment, banishment, accepting a crown?

Aelsong Hawkings is the only daughter of the Royal House of Ireland. She is an elf. Duff Torquil is the only son of the Royal House of Scotland. He is a fae. Elves and fae have been bitter enemies for a thousand years. Song and Duff met by chance in an Edinburgh pub. One look and they knew they were true mates. Now they just have to convince the rest of the world. Over the previous books, the two lovers have managed to steal only a few precious moments to meet and declare their feelings. They have patiently looked for ways to legitimately marry and heal the wounds between their two races. However, each day that goes by, their longing for each other grows and so those the pain of separation. In this book, they make a desperate, daring attempt to finally be together even though they know their actions may make them traitors in the eyes of their families and people.

This is a story about love. Love in many forms. At the heart of the tale, is the romantic and very erotic love between Song and Duff. It is beautiful and passionate. We also see the deepening love between Elora and Ram. There is also love that becomes too possessive and demanding. Equally as important is the love between friends and family. What happens when the beliefs you have held regarding your traditions and laws are in direct opposition to the what you feel for your family and friends? Can love overcome prejudice? In the end, maybe we are defined by that choice.

Victoria Danann has done it again. This a wonderful story that sweeps you away from the very beginning. I love spending time with these characters. We also get an insight in to why the different dimensions were created, why elves and fae are enemies, and why those two races are blessed/cursed with having only one true mate. I cannot wait until the next book is available. This series is highly addictive and a joy to read.

A Tale of Two Kingdoms by Victoria Danann is the sixth book in the Knights of Black Swan Series. Every book can easily be read as a standalone, but I recommend to read the books in order, there are a few cross-over.
This sixth book is Duff and Aelsong's story. Duff is the heir to the fae kingdom. He has a rigid shedule.
Aelsong is not only a psychic and works for the Order, she's Rammel Hawkin's little sister too.
Both meet and know they are soulmates. But how to convince their two nations of this.
I was greatly entertained reading this story. Ram is hilarious and Aelsong , I love her character so much.
I give 5 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars These are beautifully written stories
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 December 2014

I have read all of the series, just purchased Number 7 and about to immerse myself in the next fabulous read. These are beautifully written stories, full blooded and totally convincing. The pricipal parties are wonderfully real and I am invested in them all. I don't think I have read a series that I loved this much since Robert Jordan and George R R Martin. I will progress to lap up all of this writer's works, confident that they are money well spent. (By the way, they are a lot cheaper than some other 'supposed' top writer's offerings, much better value). Victoria rules!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as tough as the previous novels, but a fine bit of novel regardless.
Reviewed in the United States on 15 December 2015

Book 6 in the Knights of Black Swan (a novella) continues in the vein of adventure, true love and involvement of characters beginning from book 1. Aelsong Hawking, princess of the elves and sister of Rammel of the Knights, and Duffy, prince of the fae, are true mates. Having discovered this over a year previous, they have fought the mating desires and waited to decide how to be together when their two cultures have been at war for over two thousand years. And the adventure begins as the two plot to elope and their two kingdoms are out for blood. This time around, there is little violence and no other dimensions are out to slaughter the Knights. Instead we get a look at the creators of the Earth's populations and its various dimensions. "Angelic?" intervention seems to be in order. A nice break from the usual suspense and knightly duties of protecting Earth's people. The characters keep developing and friendships strengthen. Ms. Danann's writing remains strong and dialogue right on.
