Queen Evelina has never been able to have children, and the pain of that loss has caused her to shut herself off from the world. To everyone who meets her, she seems like nothing more than a cold, rude monarch, a dark figure in the palace who no longer has any warmth to offer. But in truth, she's trapped in her grief, feeling isolated despite the unwavering love of her husband, King Alistair. One day, a small, regressed 21-year-old woman-a girl who appears much younger than her age-finds herself in trouble in a market. When a guard brings her before the queen, Evelina feels an unexpected spark of connection. The girl's innocence and small size remind her of the daughter she never had, and she begins to take an unusual interest in her. But as they grow closer, Evelina must face the truth of what she truly needs-someone to fill the void in her heart, or the chance to heal the wounds of her past.
