Synopsis

USA Today bestselling author Charis Michaels concludes her delicious Hidden Royals series in this enchanting romance between a young woman, unaware of her royal birth, and the rugged sea captain who comes to claim her as his future wife.Princess Danielle Allard d’Orleans grew up believing that she was a simple village girl raised in Kent by surrogate parents. That simple life vanishes when she discovers she’s actually a princess in hiding— especially as the first order of royal business is to marry a war hero she’s never met.Captain Luke Bannock wasn’t trying to become a hero—and even less so, a husband. But he shows selfless courage in a fierce Naval battle and the Crown offers him a reward for valor. His chosen prize? The hand in marriage of an obscure princess, living in exile. The reason? Revenge against his sworn enemy. What begins as an arranged marriage between a village girl and a cynical captain evolves into dance of passion and self-discovery. As Luke helps Dani reckon with her secret royal blood, his thirst for revenge is replaced by desire for his new wife. The shock and hurt burn away, and an all-consuming love sails this fated couple into their happily ever after.

About Charis Michaels

She grew up on a peach farm in Texas and gave tours at Disney World in college but now can be found raising her family and writing love stories from her screened-in porch in Northern Virginia.

While I don't love fortune hunter books, I'm really into a fortune hunter-adjacent book: a book where one of the characters has to marry the other not because they want to get married or are in love, but because they have ulterior motives (that are not money). Often it's because they need to save so......more

After Captain Luke Bannock saves the prince’s cousin, the Crown offers him a reward for his heroism.

Goodreads review by Meghan on October 19, 2025

This was more like 4 1/2 stars. I needed a grand gesture from Luke and I don’t feel like I got that so he loses a half star. Danielle is the last lost royal of the series. Captain Luke Bannock is determined to find her and marry her. But not for any romantic reasons. He needs to save his father from......more

Goodreads review by Meg on October 29, 2025

Captain Luke Bannock is a national hero, and as his reward for saving the Prince Regent's cousin from drowning, he has a request: to marry Princess Danielle Allard d'Orleans, a French princess in exile. This is shockingly easily granted, as the princess has been in hiding for twenty years and most o......more
