Shadow of the crown

Every young woman in Malveria aspired one thing: to marry into a wealthier, higher station. Every young man craved only one thing: power.

Princess Victoria Marie Lyndor, however, had both—and far more than most dared to dream.

The heir to the wealthiest and most formidable dukedom in the kingdom was not only her betrothed, but also her best friend. As for power? She was the granddaughter of two mighty kings and, more importantly, a queen. It doesn’t get more powerful than that.



But it didn’t take long for Victoria to learn the truth about power. It’s never free. It brings friends, yes—loyal allies, sweet smiles. But it also brings enemies. Some were hers, born of envy and ambition. Others were simply inherited, passed down like family heirlooms and grudges older than she was.



They say only the one who wears the crown knows where it truly itches.

Victoria’s crown? It itched like fire.



Shadow of the Crown is a story of passion, treachery, and the hidden cost of royalty. A tale where love is dangerous.
