A fierce elite guard. A loyal lady
in waiting. They must work together to save three princesses from certain
death.
On the verge of dying after giving
birth to twins, the queen of Mercia pleads with Lady Felicia to save her infant
daughters. With the castle overrun by King Ethelwulf’s invading army, Lady
Felicia vows to do whatever she can to take the newborn princesses and their
three-year old sister to safety, even though it means sacrificing everything
she holds dear, possibly her own life.
Gravely wounded in battle and
knowing all is lost to his enemy, the king of Mercia tasks Lance, one of his
fiercest elite guards, to protect his family along with keys to an ancient
treasure. As Lance makes plans to sneak the princesses out of the capital city,
he doesn’t need or want Lady Felicia’s help.
With the dark enemy in pursuit,
Lance and Felicia must put aside their differences to outrun King Ethelwulf and
prevent him from killing the princesses. In a desperate attempt to hide the
young girls, Lance and Felicia agree to a marriage of convenience, a decision
that will change their lives—and hearts—forever.

An ancient key. A secret treasure.
And a princess destined to use them both to fight evil and restore peace.
Raised by a noble family, Lady
Adelaide has always known she’s an orphan. Little does she realize she’s one of
the lost princesses and the true heir to Mercia’s throne…until a visitor
arrives at her family estate, reveals her birthright as queen, and thrusts her
into a quest for the throne whether she’s ready or not.
Unable to tolerate King Ethelwulf’s
cruelty and lawlessness, Christopher Langley left Mercia years earlier,
training a group of rebels in neighboring Norland. When he returns home after
his mother’s death, he discovers that not only is Adelaide all grown up, but
she’s also the rightful queen of Mercia.
When King Ethelwulf discovers
Adelaide’s location, he’ll stop at nothing to capture her and the key she holds
to the ancient treasure. Christopher is just as determined to protect Adelaide
so she can lead the growing rebellion. When feelings ignite between the two old
friends, forces threaten to destroy their love and rip them apart forever.

My Review
After reading the compelling prequel novella to this series, I couldn't wait to discover the fates of the three lost princesses. Adelaide is the oldest of the three, and discovers her true identity at the beginning of the book. The author did a great job of giving the reader a sense of her character and personality before the action and adventure swept the story into a faster pace. Reunited with Adelaide after several years of being disowned by his father, Christopher faces his own dilemmas but the themes of loyalty, family, and forgiveness help him and Adelaide overcome the obstacles in their paths. I easily connected with the characters and felt the danger and excitement as I read. I'm looking forward to the next two books and am *very* appreciative that there won't be a long wait for them!
