From sanitation to feeding the newborns in the royal nursery to becoming an elite forager, Flora revels in service to her hive.When Flora breaks the most sacred law of all—daring to challenge the Queen's fertility—enemies abound, from the fearsome fertility police who enforce the strict social hierarchy to the high priestesses who are jealously wed to power. Her deepest instinct to serve and sacrifice is now overshadowed by an even deeper desire, a fierce maternal love that will bring her into conflict with her conscience, her heart and her society, and lead her to commit unthinkable deeds...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
