Set around two weeks after page one, now queen of Lupresia (Lou-Pre-Zha), River Lucrece must handle the complexities of ruling a nation and navigate the situations she runs into. Her childhood friend, Stacy "Stace" Baker, after having previously had a falling out with River for a brief time, is now royal advisor, and having been her Lady-in-Waiting before that. Elias Homings, having killed the usurper and prince of Avantasia (A-Van-Tah-See-Uh), Haden Holstein in the first chapter, is now held as a hero by many.

As news reaches Avantasia's queen, Queen Isabella, about the death of her beloved and only child, heir to her throne, she does not believe what's being said about why he was killed and thinks Lupresia is covering up that they assassinated him, declaring war. So not only is River new to ruling, but must do so during wartime, with all of the stress that it entails. Meanwhile, anger grows at home as there is a plot to kill River and seize the Lupresian throne and place a self-proclaimed son of the king before last upon it.

(NOTICE!!! This is a sequel! If you wish to understand the background to certain references better, read the one titled "Like a River Page One." It's a screenplay while this one's a novel, but... Hush! It's a much quicker read than this one is as a result, so it shouldn't take too long.)

The Heir Apparent - a historical why choose, rh, poly, MMF, spicy romance ✅ by jessicagadziala
27 parts Complete Mature
Distant descendant to the throne, Anevay was raised in a rural town where all she did was dream of life in the city, a life she knew she would never have. On the eve of her wedding to a man thirty-five years her senior, the kingdom is thrown into upheaval after a failed coup left her uncle, the king, and her cousins dead. And leaving Anevay herself... the heir apparent. She found herself torn away from the only world she'd ever known, and thrust into a position she was always told she would never hold. Queen. Palace life had none of the thrills of the city she'd dreamed about. But it did have several intriguing-and frustratingly handsome-men there, meant to assist her in her new duties as ruler. Riven, her guard, a headstrong and reckless man whose thirst for blood hid a softer, kinder side. Tolliver, her political mentor, an arrogant curmudgeon bent on making her feel a fool at every turn. Casimir, her personal palace physician, someone meant to know every secret of her body. And Penn, an ambassador from an exotic land she'd never even heard of, a devilishly good-looking and sensual man who always seemed to find a reason to be near. She was meant to be fixing the damage of the attempted coup, bringing her people back to the glory they'd once known, yet the lure of these men around her proves too strong to fight. But enemies abounded, threatening not only the relationships between Anevay and the men she was beginning to love, but the success of her kingdom, and her very life... * HEA. No triggers. Some swords cross (in all the ways that swords can cross), others do not. If you don't want to wait for new chapters, this book is available to purchase on your favorite retailers.
