The King's Whisper: Book Two of the Vanguards of Viridor

Felix isn't an adventurer. He's a poor flautist whose strange luck has placed him in the good favor of Viridor's queen and in the arms of the guildmaster's son. And now that the queen is safe and the decrees against elementals have been lifted, all that's left is for him to return to the Guardian's Guild, where he will continue writing songs about events he's played no part in. But when Felix is kidnapped by the devastatingly handsome bandit king, he is thrust into the starring role of a terrifying and romantic adventure.
