Dawn Of The Cursed Queen
The king is dead. The door was locked from the inside. And the only key was in her hand.
Lady Vaelora Edevayne was three weeks from becoming queen. Then the bells of Blackmere Palace rang before dawn, and King Orvellan was found dead in a sealed chapel with her key beneath his fingers.
Her family has been whispered about for generations. Cursed, they say. Doomed to bring ruin to any crown they touch. Now the court has already decided she is guilty, and the Council gives her exactly nine days before she faces judgment.
Her only chance is the one man she cannot trust: Rhydian Veyr, the king's illegitimate brother, sharp-tongued, sleepless, and just as hungry for the truth as she is. He interrogated her like a suspect. Now he needs her like a partner. And every step they take together brings them closer to a kingdom's worth of buried secrets, and closer to each other.
Black roses appear in the queen's garden. A warning promises that seven shall fall. Another body turns up. Someone is using an ancient curse as a mask, and they will kill again to keep it in place.
If you love twisty palace intrigue, slow-burn tension between enemies, clever heroines who fight with their minds, and mysteries that keep you guessing until the final page, you will not want to put this one down.
Some curses are real. Some are just very good lies.
Dawn of the Cursed Queen is a historical romance mystery of forbidden desire, deadly secrets, and a crown worth killing for.
