In hiding as a maid, Princess Adelaide must resist the charms of the devilishly handsome Duke of Kingfield. But could he help her if she told him her secret? ***** Two years ago, Princess Adelaide was forced into hiding after her father, King William IV, was killed in a carriage accident that also took the life of her mother and brother. She suspects that the despicable man now on the throne of England--her uncle, Ernest--is responsible for her family's death, so she avoids his watchful eye by working as a maid for the aristocratic families of London. However, when she's employed by the dashing Duke of Kingfield, she soon discovers that he not only believes that the princess is alive, but also that she could be the key to saving England. Is Adelaide willing to come out of hiding in order to prove him right? Or are her growing feelings for him worth giving up her claim to the throne?

[UNEDITED] Genesis Anderson knew fairy tales with happy endings didn't exist but that never made her feel indifferent about them. That is, until the night she sees a beast for herself. When she wakes the next morning in an unfamiliar room, in an unfamiliar town, her newly acquired werewolf abilities are the least of her worries. She soon learns she's been accused of a murder, and the victim? The former Alpha. Locked away by the brother of the man she supposedly killed, Genesis realizes she must fight to prove her innocence, and navigate her new life in a pack that's already rejected her, if she ever wants to make it out alive. But even as the line between enemies and foes, as well as hate and love begins to blur, a looming darkness threatens to destroy all of wolf kind and mankind. And even in this make-believe fairy tale, Genesis learns happy endings still aren't given nor promised. ✨Werewolf Week - featured 10/26/20✨ ✨From Our Stars - featured 2/9/21✨
