Queen of the Rose Palace

When the new King takes his throne he marries the lady in his heart setting aside the vicious and clinging woman who had been his betrothed. But love is not a substitute for power and the security of his realm. To regain the alliance he had foolishly thrown aside he will have to make a cruel sacrifice.

The woman who returns to him is dutiful but cold and distance. Even as they fight together and his heart softens she remains closed from him. A moment's foolishness may lead to a lifetime of regret.
