Adeera had but one wish: to claim her rightful place as the heir to her father's fortune and title. When her claim was threatened, she was willing to do whatever it took to secure her future, even if it meant crossing paths with a crown prince whose haughty demeanor was surpassed only by his lust for power.

In the opulent kingdom of Ivor, where power and privilege reign supreme, Adeera Aurelia Celeste defies convention. The sole daughter of the King, Adeera is determined to claim her rightful place as heir, shattering the glass ceiling of a patriarchal society. With her goals meticulously planned, she never expected to strike a deal with an arrogant prince, but fate had other plans in store.

Prince Vernon Williams, the coveted bachelor of Querencia. With a chiseled physique and razor-sharp wit, Vernon is as ruthless as he is handsome. His heart beats solely for his mother and sister; the rest of the world can burn.

As Adeera and Vernon navigate an adventurous path, will they find themselves torn between duty and desire?

Adellia has grown up surrounded by rules and regulations. She's been prepped from birth to eventually reside in the throne that has been in her family for what feels like forever. Unfortunately, her destiny is quickly approaching. Her father is dead, and her mother has only a couple of months to live according to doctors. All eyes in the castle, and kingdom, turn to Adellia expecting her to step into her mother's shoes. However, both women aren't ready to give up their lives just yet. Wanting to learn more about her kingdom, and the people of it, before she is forced into an arranged marriage and the throne for the rest of her life, Adellia ventures out into the kingdom to do just that. While there, Adellia meets a young blacksmith by the name of Faron and gets sucked into a plot that goes against her, and her mother's wishes. Will she be able to venture into the unknown, and survive out of the watchful eye of the palace? This book has sexual reference and mentions of things that could possibly be triggering to some - e.g. young motherhood and loss of a parent. This work is usually split into two parts, but I have decided to take down the second part, and consider the first part, one book for now, so I can work on the second. When the second part/book has been finished, I'll decide whether I like it as one book or to reincorporate the rest of the book to make it one. Entered in the Wattys(2020)!

Win the prince's heart by the end of the summer to become the future Queen of Avalion. Five other ladies contend for the same prize, enduring grueling challenges to prove their value and securing their victory through other nefarious means.

As Myria learns more about her mother's history, she is confronted by her own decisions. Does she really want to marry the prince? Is learning magic worth the price of joining the ranks of the nobility? Or should she leave the court before encountering the same, mysterious evil that frightened her mother?
