NATASHA BLACKMORE is terrified and elated. Not only does she have newborns to deal with and friends to worry about, but she also has to keep her throne away from power-hungry courtiers. Fortunately, she has help from her husband... CONNOR WHITE thought life was settled when he married the queen two years ago. Now he's learning that life is just getting started, and when his cousin asks him for an heir to the White family estate, he has no idea what to do... VICTORIA RUTHERFORD has just gotten engaged. Unfortunately, she's also just lost her brother. As she is forced to navigate her romantic and familial relationships, will she finally learn what love really is?

THIS IS THE SEQUEL TO "OF MARRIAGE AND MURDER" NATASHA BLACKMORE: A year later, she's a mother. It doesn't mean she's any sweeter, or any more affectionate, however - only that she has more people to care for, and even more to lose. And even though the murderer has been discovered and put away, new enemies are springing up in Arlean court - enemies that could bring worse consequences than death... CONNOR WHITE: He didn't expect to be a father so soon, but his child is not a burden to him. And even if it were, it would be one he refuses to run from. Although his Royal in-laws suddenly coming back from the dead certainly present a challenge... Not to mention the rivals surrounding the throne on all sides, waiting to take them down. VICTORIA RUTHERFORD is still healing emotionally from the wounds inflicted on her a year ago by a murderer and criminal. Ergo, new love is the last thing on her mind. But will it find her all the same... and will he truly care for her, or is he using her for darker purposes? MATTHEW BLACKMORE: sank on a ship and disappeared forever. Or did he? {#104 in Historical Fiction on 01/14/2019}

Too bad she lives in the eighteenth century, where women writers are scorned as equal to prostitutes, her father is a drunk, and she has no prospects other than marrying the local butcher (he's also a dentist and a surgeon!). When she has a run-in with the Duke, Landon Havisham, she seizes the chance to tell him about her finished manuscript and he agrees to become her patron. Well, not exactly. It's more that he agrees to become the patron of her brother, who doesn't exist, and whose name is on the manuscript that she writes. But the more Rose communicates with Landon, the more she wonders if she should tell him who she really is... and if he'll be able to accept her under her own name.
