    Summary

    Escaping the Great War was supposed to be the hardest thing Corliss Dodd ever survived, but there was one thing far worse. Surviving it alone. Seven years after the woman he loved was taken from him, and seven years after he swore he would never replace her, his carefully preserved grief is disrupted by someone who unsettles everything he thought he owed to the past. What begins as an unexpected connection becomes a new war within him. The fighting sides being loyalty and memory, against the terrifying possibility of loving again.

    Summary

    “We have no idea what to get her,” the Battle Maniac was the first to break the silence, letting his head thud onto the scratched wooden table. “And it’s not like we have any money…”

    “I’ll take care of it,” the Eldest affirmed, looking from one younger sibling to the other. “We just need to figure out what she wants, and that’s what she’ll have.”

    “Well,” the Eccentric started, rubbing his chin. "She said she wanted a bazooka a while back. Or to be a princess."

    Based on that, it was easy to decide what her gift would be.

    Or: it's the Youngest of the Black Rabbit Brotherhood's birthday, and everyone knows a princess needs a crown.
