Synopsis

Coming to America meets Bridgerton in this enthralling, contemporary debut novel by L.R. Jackson which blurs the lines of forbidden romance and showers hopeless romantics with a second-chance love reunion.

Unlike fairy tales of old, sometimes a woman must fight to save her king.

Ebony Rose desires the freedom to love without limits—but that’s for people who aren’t harboring the kind of skeletons that could threaten their very existence.

Desperately running from her past and a broken heart, Ebony refuses to allow anyone to get close to her—until she crosses paths once more with Dafari, the knight in shining armor she lost long ago.

The last thing King Dafari expects to find in New York is the girl who got away—although he had hoped. Marrying a woman outside of his culture is strictly forbidden, and the clock is ticking for him to choose a queen. However, Ebony Rose embodies all the qualities he seeks in a
mate and a matriarch for his country, and Dafari is determined to make Ebony his, despite the laws and traditions that stand between them. Then he makes a grave discovery that causes his world to spiral and leave him questioning everyone he loves.

Secrets buried under betrayal emerge, threatening to destroy the bond between Ebony and Dafari. Will they survive the sinister conspiracy surrounding them, or will royal misdeeds and scandal topple their chance at redemption and true happiness?

I couldn’t put this book down!! The mystery behind Ebony and Dafari kept me going throughout the entire book. It starts off a complete mystery and by the time I finished I was glad the way it ended. A few curveballs I was not expecting which kept the storyline entertaining and left me on the edge un......more

TRIGGER WARNING Child abuse, some violence I give a 4.5 star rating. It was a cute contemporary romance novel. The line is hazy between forbidden love, fairy tale romance, and a second chance romance. I'm a hopeless romantic so I thoroughly enjoyed it. A budding college romance gone in a poof. Neith......more
