“All I desire is a husband who can sit pretty on the throne beside me and keep his mouth shut while I rule. You don’t fit the criteria, Killian. I am not looking for a warrior.” “When the men at court point their swords at your neck princess, you’ll need a warrior by your side instead of a puppet. You won’t be able to get rid of me so easily Amelia. Not when I have made up my mind to have you.” “I am not something for you to simply have Killian.” “Aren’t you? The men out there seem to be putting a good price on your future. Become my wife and I will become your weapon. I will make sure this throne belongs to you.” … Fancy tiaras and dresses never interested Amelia Blackwell, current princess of the Backwell castle. It had always been the throne in the middle of the court that caught her eyes.

When talks of her marriage flood the castle and news that her father wishes to make her cousin Fraser Adams his heir, Amelia takes matters into her own hands. She sets off to find her own husband and plots to take the throne. Meeting the king of the north Killian Bune doesn’t make her life any easier. Along her way she finds love, betrayal, death, envy, and more as she tries to become queen. “I promise you, this throne will belong to me.” ... The cover was done by IG r.voh.k
Amelia noticed how Margaret looked dissatisfied with her holding Killian's hand as they walked. She thought she would not have found anyone in a castle who disapproved of her marriage to Killian more than Agramon, but she was wrong.

Has the temple lost its manners by not keeping its promises and allowing us to eat first? What is so important that you have called us here already?"
"It won't be long. You will be sitting at the table eating in no time. Since Killian has to leave later, we decided to do this now. Do you want to stay out here or come inside?" Margaret asked, stepping to the side to show Amelia and Killian the path to the entrance of the temple.
