Queen Ottávia believed love had secured her place beside King Georgio III. Chosen over power and wealth, she gave him her heart-and nearly her life in the attempt to give him an heir. But when after many losses, their first child was stillborn and grief consumes her, the court turns cold.

Her hope of comfort is shattered when the Queen Mother presents a cruel solution: her dearest friend, Valentina, brought to court as the surrogate who will bear the King's child.

Torn between devotion and betrayal, love and survival, Ottavia must decide if she will remain silent and broken-or rise to claim power of her own.

The crown is heavy. The betrayal is heavier

The Heather Wife (Work in Progress) by HopingForTheBest44
25 parts Ongoing
Sorcha MacAlasdair, daughter of a proud Laird, with her quiet beauty and untameable nature, is like the heather that grows across the hills of her Highland home-nurturing, steadfast, and resilient. Betrothed in childhood, her marriage was forged in blood and duty, meant to bind two clans together against a common enemy. She asked for nothing and expected even less from the unwanted union-though in the quiet corners of her heart, she hoped it might become more than obligation. That, perhaps, love might grow from the bond her clan's future depended on. Calum MacRae resented the duty forced upon him. He saw Sorcha as a burden-a symbol of obligation, not choice. His heart belonged to Elspeth-a childhood friend whose charm and ambition shaped the future he believed he deserved. Though his Laird father warned him of sacred vows and the cost of defiance, Calum chose betrayal. He turned his back on Sorcha-insisting she remain a wife in name only. But war changes everything. Calum returns to a home scarred by conflict. A clan whose loyalties have wholly turned away from him. And a future far different from the one he abandoned her for. The woman he ignored-his inconvenient bride-has become the heart of the keep. Sorcha, the heather he once overlooked-wild, rooted, and impossible to break-is now the only thing standing between him and ruin.
