Princess Eleanor Rosewood had been dreaming of her Prince Charming since she could remember, she just didn't expect that man to be one of her royal guards. A knight. Christopher Everard was a rough man, he had been since the war. A seasoned warrior turned royal guard was what he was, he bore the marks of countless battles upon his face--rough-hewn features carved by hardship and time. Love and heartbreak is what got him from common rank in the war to a gritty knight of the royal guard but the weight of war still lingers in his steady gaze, but beneath the hardened exterior lies an unyielding loyalty forged in fire and loss. Eleanor is the princess of a vision of quiet defiance--graceful yet unyielding beneath the weight of duty. Though raised in silks and ceremony, her heart yearns for freedom beyond castle walls. Forced into a marriage to secure her father's advantages with other kingdoms, she hides her turmoil behind practiced poise. Yet in the moments between courtly masks, her emotions run deep--love, anger, and sorrow intertwining in the heart of a woman who refuses to break. Maybe they're meant for each other after all, or maybe they will be each other's downfall.
