The Queen
COMPLETE She was never meant to be queen. She was never meant to fall in love with the king. And she was never meant to survive the price of both. In a kingdom where loyalty is dangerous and love is a liability, Queen Samira finds herself tangled in a web of secrets, lies, and a forbidden passion that could destroy everything. As enemies rise within the court and the crown grows heavier, one truth becomes painfully clear: love doesn't come without casualties. The king made a choice. And now, so will she. A tale of love and vengeance, loyalty and loss, and the slow unraveling of a kingdom where power is everything-and love might be the most dangerous power of all. © MaryRose 2018.
