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.

Child Of The Phoenix
As heir to the kingdom of Astral, Princess Alessia Astrael is no stranger to rules - she's lived her whole life behind them. Sharp-tongued, perfectly composed, and trained to navigate the polished cruelty of court life, she's mastered the art of restraint. But beneath the surface, cracks are forming. Christian Russel, a seasoned soldier with a quiet edge and a gaze that misses nothing, is assigned as her new personal guard. He's not charming. He's not soft. He's loyal, infuriatingly calm - and completely off-limits. Their connection shouldn't deepen. But it does. What starts as tension blooms into something forbidden. A slow-burn loyalty neither of them fully understands, forged in quiet hallways, glances that linger too long, and truths spoken when no one else is listening. Yet Astral's palace is a nest of old secrets, shifting alliances, and masked intentions. And while Alessia tries to keep her heart guarded, everything around her is starting to move - including pieces far beyond her control. In a kingdom that demands perfection, desire has consequences. And love might be the most dangerous rebellion of all.
King Henry
Medieval England - Year 1450: Eleanor was a poor shopkeeper's daughter whose only hope for a better life for herself and her family was to marry well. When she caught the eye of Thomas Fletcher, a royal courtier of noble blood, her family thought he was the answer to all their problems. Eleanor thought he was unattractive and rude, but she didn't have any better options as a poor commoner so she accepted his proposal. They just had to somehow convince King Henry that she was a suitable bride for Thomas so he would approve of their union, because marrying Thomas meant that she would join Henry's inner circle as a courtier. At just twenty three years old Henry had to take over as the King of England when his father passed away unexpectedly. On his first day presiding over the royal court, he was faced with a tough decision, should he approve Thomas' marriage to Eleanor, a commoner that he was almost certain was unfit to join his Royal Court? He decided the only fair way to decide was to have her stay at his castle for a week as his guest so he could see for himself if she had what it took to withstand the pressure of the life of a royal courtier. What King Henry didn't count on was the feelings that started to grow for that commoner throughout the week. She was already betrothed to someone else and even if she wasn't, a King could never marry a commoner. But he also couldn't ignore the growing need he felt inside to be with her, even if it would throw his country into a civil war and turn both of their lives upside down. He knew some things were worth fighting for.

And though she did not know it then, destiny would one day bring her face to face with the man who had destroyed her life. The man who would become both her greatest enemy... and the one love she could never escape.Complete
