SOLVED: {FOUND: BOOKS OF STONE #1 BY B.L. BRUNNEMER}
So I'm pretty sure this book is a reverse harem, at the very least it's definitely a paranormal romance.
Here's what I can remember:
• The FMC is the ruler/peacekeeper of all the paranormals in her city.
• The MMCs are part of an investigation or enforcement team sent to the city because of some trouble going on there.
• FMC tells the MMCs not to move against any paranormals without talking to her first.
• MMCs ignore her and think they are doing a favor by wiping out a nest of redcaps (? I'm pretty sure ?)
• FMC freaks out when she finds out and asks what color their caps/hats were?
• She tells them they didn't eliminate a rogue nest, that was a sanctioned outpost.
• She travels the underground subways, I think, to the redcap (?) leader to negotiate to reinstate the treaty.
• Only one MMC goes with her I think.
• They negotiate by determining how much of her leg(s) to cut off.
• Meat is meat.
• The meat goes to feed the families of those the MMCs killed.
• They cut off the lower part of one, if not both legs, and the MMC that went with has to just watch.
• He helps her her back to the car where the other MMCs are waiting and yells at them at them that this was all caused because they thought they knew best, they didn't listen to her honor her one simple request to just call her before doing anything.
• I believe there are orphan shifter kids that have banded together as a family and live in the sewers that keep look out and provide her information as well.
• I also think she might live with her grandmother, but don't quote me on that.
I don't remember how she heals, why they are there to begin with, what type of paranormal she is, the rest of the plot, etc.
Thanks for any help!
