From the world of The Duke's Masked Bride. Before Hazel was the Duchess's closest friend, she was a girl in a royal selection. What the crown cost her is the story the King never told Edgar. Every noble daughter in the kingdom wants to win that selection. Hazel Wallace enters it to keep her younger sister out of it.

She refuses him in front of the court. He chooses her anyway. The palace has been waiting for a queen it can break.
