A Princess’s Choice

Princess Aradia wakes to an ultimatum: marry the northern prince or watch her kingdom fall. With war looming on every border and nobles watching her every move, duty demands she accept the alliance that will secure peace.

Her personal guard, Captain Riven Calder, is ordered to escort her through the treacherous negotiations. What begins as sharp words and buried tension soon becomes something far more dangerous as they uncover proof that the northern prince plans to seize the throne after the wedding.

Caught between the queen’s expectations, a court of spies, and a growing conspiracy, Aradia must decide whether to obey or risk everything. Riven’s past in the northern army and their forbidden attraction only deepen the stakes as evidence mounts and threats close in.

When forged documents and an attempted coup push her to the brink, Aradia makes her stand before the council. Her choice will either topple the alliance or reshape the realm, with Riven at her side as protector, advisor, and the one man she refuses to lose.
