(Sequel to The King's Mistress) Lauren Michaelson has just gotten her fairy-tale ending. After years of torment (which left her with anxiety and PTSD), she met a handsome prince from the neighbouring kingdom, and they fell in love. More than anything, Lauren wants to believe that her past is behind her. Her husband has been a lifesaver-giving her space when she needs it but making sure she knows he's available if she needs him. As for her mother and sisters, they are still adjusting to palace life. Everything's going well-until Lauren gets a mysterious letter hand-delivered to her with disturbing contents. Things that only people inside her family know-about her past, her present, and possibly her future. One person comes to mind-her father, whom she hasn't seen since the last rebel attack three years ago. Is her past coming back to haunt her? Or will she finally be able to make peace with her past and focus on her present and future? Read to find out.
