Fate offers


Nefeli dislikes secrets. They lead to mistrust and discontent. Better to face problems straight on, admit weaknesses alongside strengths, and build trust. Only Nefeli's lover and dance partner, Jola, offers a respite from the plots, treacheries, and fears plaguing Nefeli's family, the rulers of Codaros. But her family's troubles threaten to entangle her one more time when Nefeli's mother offers her true power.


Jola ranks among the princesses who protect the land from danger and disaster, but remembers her common origins. Determined to help other commoners understand the power of dance magic, she led retired princesses to build schools fostering dance training across the nation. She fears losing magic, place at court, and most of all her beloved Nefeli, if her dancing ever fails. One fine evening, she sees the first signs . . .


Two loving, fearful hearts. Two sets of secrets capable of binding them together-or parting them forever.


With characters poignant and fierce, A Royal Princess offers a moving portrait of quiet, determined love.
