  # The Foxling Soldati
  
  By Charlie Cochet Sequel to The Soldati Prince Soldati Hearts: Book Two
  
  
  Foxling Toka has served the Soldati king for centuries, and now he attends to
  the kingdom’s cherished Soldati prince. It’s a position of honor, and as Toka
  helps the once-human prince adapt to their magical realm, he finds joy in
  their friendship. He also grows bolder in his encounters with Rayner, Soldati
  warrior and the king’s second. But the laws are clear: servants and Soldati
  are not permitted to mate. It doesn’t matter that Toka lost his heart to the
  dashing cad long ago.
  
  
  Rayner never imagined he would fall in love with a servant, but the clever and
  beautiful foxling has ensnared him, and he resents the regulations keeping
  them apart. When an arrogant and spiteful king visits from a neighboring
  realm, Rayner is in danger of losing everything. But Soldati warriors don’t
  surrender, and he intends to fight all the harder to keep Toka where he
  belongs—in Rayner’s arms.
