Prince of Hearts

The Prince…

Even after decades of peace following a ruinous civil war, the stability of the English throne cannot be taken for granted. Honoring a promise made to his father, Prince Edmund Tudor has dedicated his life to supporting his king. Even his marriage will be made in service of his pledge, his bride the king's to choose. But that does not mean he cannot enjoy himself beforehand. Handsome and charming, he is free to dally with the ladies of the court, playing at love in a game no one takes seriously.

…and the maid-of-honor

Arriving at the royal court to advance her family's interests, Cecilia Coleville has two goals: gain the Queen's favor and attract a noble suitor. What she is  not there to do is engage in a dalliance with a man far beyond her reach, one whose attention can only damage her reputation. Yet despite her awareness of what she owes the family she loves, she cannot resist Edmund.

When a new danger to the throne emerges, Cecilia must help Edmund stop it, without losing her honor — or her heart.
