Burning for you

Xandria never wanted to be a queen. But when the king chooses her as his bride, she has no say in the matter. To him, it’s a political move—necessary, inevitable. To her, it’s a prison.



Determined to guard her heart, she refuses to be just another pawn in his game. But the more time she spends with him, the harder it is to ignore the man behind the crown—the one who carries the weight of a kingdom on his shoulders, the one who looks at her like she’s something more than a duty.



She wasn’t supposed to fall for him. And he wasn’t supposed to care. But love has a way of ruining even the best-laid plans.



Now, with enemies circling and a kingdom on the brink of chaos, they’ll have to decide: fight their feelings or risk everything for a love that was never meant to be.
