The Grand Ducal Coup has succeeded. In order to avoid revolution, Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovich, the Tsar's brother, takes the reins of the Government in Petrograd and declares himself regent with the support of all senior Grand Dukes. With a heavy heart, he sends his brother, wife and daughters into exile to the Isle of Man and becomes his nephew's tutor until he comes of age. Russia becomes a Constitutional Monarchy, and revolution is avoided. Meanwhile, the Tsar's uncle, Grand Duke Paul, who had settled in Russia in 1914 after spending several years in exile in Paris due to his scandalous marriage to a divorced woman, is adjusting to his old life. His children, Vladimir, an accomplished poet, Irina, and Natalia, will have to settle into a new world, far from everything they have always known. In the final days of the old regime, Vladimir falls in love with Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna, but the coup, Rasputin's murder, and their divided loyalties drift them apart. His sister Irina also finds love with Feodor, but he still sees her as a little girl. Natalia, the most extroverted and fiery of the siblings, makes an impression wherever she goes, leaving a trail of broken hearts in her wake. Together, they will have to navigate life, love, friendship, and heartbreak in a foreign country with a new position, new people, and unfamiliar conventions.

They were born into royalty. They were raised to rule. They were never taught how to be siblings. Princess Amrutha has spent most of her life acting like the second mother of the royal family. At twenty, while studying for her Bachelor of Arts, she is already accustomed to responsibilities most people twice her age would avoid. Diplomatic, authoritative and frighteningly composed, she is the one everyone turns to when the palace falls into chaos. Except when she's alone with her siblings. Then the mature princess disappears, and the childish older sister emerges. Princess Anamika, eighteen, is the palace's sunshine with a sword at her side. A BA LLB student with a sharp mind and an even sharper sense of humor, she can negotiate an argument in the morning, sneak out of the palace by evening, and somehow return before anyone notices. Usually. Then there's Princess Adrishya. Sixteen. Fearless. Social. Curious. And an absolute menace. Adrishya knows every hidden route, forgotten passage and secret corner of the kingdom. She knows merchants, guards, nobles, servants, travelers and practically everyone else. Her ability to read people makes her far more dangerous than anyone realizes. Behind every charming smile, she can sense when something is wrong. And finally comes Crown Prince Anant. Ten years old. Perfectly polite. Unreasonably annoying. Far too intelligent for his age. He adores his sisters, respects them deeply, and somehow possesses the extraordinary ability to turn a peaceful afternoon into complete royal chaos. Together, the four siblings are supposed to represent the future of their kingdom. Instead, they argue over breakfast, sneak through palace corridors, tease one another, disappear into the city, uncover secrets they were never meant to find and repeatedly test the patience of the people responsible for protecting them. But beneath the laughter, silk and golden palace walls lies a kingdom full of political games, hidden motives and danger

[ON HOLD] The first time Liam Beckett saw Clare Harper, she was a smudge of colour in a black-and-white photograph. She was laughing, a soft pearl of a smile playing on her lips, her eyes shimmering with a secret amusement that seemed to dance just out of the camera's reach. It was a fleeting glance, a moment captured in time, but it was enough to make his heart stumble. "Who was this girl with the silky hair and the mischievous twinkle in her eye?" He had found the photo in a dusty antique shop, tucked away between yellowed pages of forgotten letters and brittle newspaper clippings. The more he stared at her, the more real she seemed to become. And then, one night, she was standing in front of him. How could this happen?
