I finally found it! A copy of the second novel in the Rabbit Rogue series! The books by a mysterious author with a heroine who is incredibly similar to myself, down a very specific mark on my inner thigh.... Maybe finding more of these will gain more insight into who the author is, and how they know me!
from the back of the book
"Satya Silver has cleared her name. After being betrayed and wrongfully slandered by her step-uncle, she has regained her families titles and lands. She could not have managed this without the aid of mysterious Viera scoundrel Fliss Oakland. However, once Fliss won the trial by combat as her champion, the woman who stole Satya's heart was immediately arrested for past crimes and for previously allying herself with traitors!
Now Satya needs to help clear Fliss's name and prevent a potential threat to the whole city! But where Fliss is keeping parts of her past a secret, Satya will have to use all of her families allies and contacts to uncover yet another conspiracy! Can she fully give herself and her trust to the woman who can't return the act? To the woman who is keeping her past and her life a secret?
