When love and duty compete, which will win?
King Xavier of Maynet doesn't believe in love: he's had enough experience to know it can't be trusted. But he does believe in duty and knows he'll choose a wife as tradition dictates. However, when his late brother's widow joins him on a month-long royal tour of Maynet he develops feelings for her deeper than anything he's ever known or believed possible, and he finds himself spending more time thinking about her than any prospective bride.
Princess Katerina won't ever risk her heart again after the humiliation of her marriage. Instead, she's dedicating her life to the betterment of her beloved adopted country, Maynet. Yet she finds herself attracted to Xavier in a way that threatens all her careful plans, and the more time they spend together the stronger their connection gets.
As time runs out for Xavier to choose a wife, will he realise what he feels for Katerina is love and that she's more important than any tradition? Can Katerina trust herself and her feelings for Xavier and demand what she truly deserves, someone who loves her?

Review :
'5 stars. For lovers of royal romance, this one will take your breath away. The passion and restraint between a King and his alluring but untouchable widowed sister-in-law burns off the page! The author expertly recaptures a vintage-style of angst, entangling us in a glamorous story of forbidden love and duty, whilst still staying fresh and readable. Loved it!' Goodreads review
'5 stars. A stunning debut! This is such a swoony, royal romance story with gorgeous scene setting and some great forced proximity (on a train, in a castle, in a car). I was rooting for Katerina and Xavier right from the start. Beautiful, emotional prose and a bingeable story about having to choose between duty and love.' Goodreads review
