From the time since she was a little girl, Adeline d'Artagnan has always wanted to be a musketeer just like her late father, but as she got older, she realized she would never become one as a woman. She soon gets the shock of her life when she hears news that she is engaged to her arch nemesis, Gérard Leroy. Reluctantly, she agrees to marry him just to protect her family, but then when the Comte de Rochefort kills her best friend when he tried to defend her honor, she goes on a journey to avenge her best friend's death. Along the way, she meets the Inseparables where they take her onto perilous journeys such as getting into duels with the Cardinal's guards, breaking into the Tower of London to retrive the Queen's diamonds, and going into battles with the captain of the Cardinal's guards on an airship. All these events lead her to becoming the one thing she always wanted, but becoming la femme musketeer was just the beginning of the journey...

The Sins Of The Sovereign (The Power Gambit Series 3)
The Power Gambit Series 3 "Power isn't given, it's taken-play the game or be played." A queen without mercy is a queen without limits. Yna Eloisa Maureen Velarde Fiorelli-Lady Eloisa to the world-was born into power, sculpted for perfection, and married off as a pawn in a dynasty's grand design. Her union with Caius Alexander Ravelle Farnese, Duke of Veredagne, was not for love, nor for happiness-it was a contract inked in legacy and silent war. Until the night everything shattered. The attack was meant to break her, to strip her of the sovereignty she carried in her blood. But they failed. Yna did not shatter. She sharpened. Beneath the veil of civility, behind the whispers of high society, she and Caius forge a different kind of bond-one not built on romance, but on vengeance. They will hunt every last name behind the attack, dismantle every hidden power that thought itself untouchable, and erase those who dared to cross them. As the bodies fall, so do the walls between them. In the cold battlefield of their marriage, desire ignites alongside destruction. But the cost of power is steep, and not all betrayals come from the shadows. In a world where control is an illusion and alliances are daggers waiting to be turned, Yna will either rise as the queen they never saw coming-or be buried beneath the sins of the sovereign.Complete
