Leo Winthrop knows how to hold a grudge. He doesn’t trust me, and I can’t blame him. Prince August and I are reunited, and Atticus has escaped the influence of his powerful family. I’m back in the castle, and it feels like I have enemies around every corner. I want to protect my husband, defend my lover, and eliminate our adversarys. Our guard has made it his mission to destroy me. Leo is vengeful. I loathe him. I love him. The damaged guard has trust issues and a hero complex. I have to prove to him that I am a trusted partner in this fight, before it’s too late. Deadly is the Queen, Dead are the crown’s enemies.
