[COMPLETED] It all seemed to be a fairy tale ending to Princess Elizabeth. She had found a wonderful family, she lived in a beautiful castle, and she had fallen in love with the man of her dreams. But soon an old promise came back into the light. An unbreakable vow between two kingdoms. And it would change the young princess's destiny forever. Sometimes Elizabeth's old life, trapped in a dusty bookshop, seemed a lot more appealing. *sequel to Lost Royalty- Can be read as a stand-alone, but I would recommend reading the first story first* I hope you enjoy!
