She’s a wild countess chasing love with a commoner. He’s the king she never meant to fall for.
When Lady Hevva and King Ehmet meet at a three-day event, sparks fly, along with banter, baggage, and clashing ideals. She wants a “nice common boy.” He wants anything but love.
Back home, Hevva throws herself into duty and distractions. Meanwhile, Ehmet is told to marry or risk losing the Crown. Cue a royal “wife-finding party,” and Hevva’s on the guest list.
Can they find the rhythm to their strange, sizzling connection, or are they destined to keep dancing out of step?
The Reluctant Queen is a low-stakes fantasy romance full of magic, mischief, open-door spice, and laugh-out-loud banter with a guaranteed happily ever after.
