This swoon-worthy sapphic historical romance asks: What happens when the heart demands a life that the world may refuse to accept? As Greece’s last living queen, Isabella has spent her life putting her kingdom before herself. But duty comes at a devastating cost: she cannot allow herself to pursue her own desires. No one understands this better than Camilla, her childhood companion, confidant, and most loyal servant. Having stood beside Isabella through years of dangerous court politics and public scrutiny, Camilla has mastered the art of soothing the queen while concealing the one feeling she cannot safely confess—her deep love for her monarch.
When a shared moment of vulnerability with Camilla crosses the line into something more, Isabella glimpses a life of freedom she has long denied herself. But whispers travel fast through palace corridors, and the looming threat of public exposure could destroy her reign. To protect the crown, Isabella may be forced to exile the only person she truly trusts. And as the stakes escalate, Camilla must also decide whether staying at Isabella’s side will save the woman she loves, or cost them both their futures. Readers of Bridgerton and The Other Boleyn Girl will relish in this intimate novel spanning forbidden love, Regency-era politics, and a love worth risking everything for.
