Her Royal Intrusion

The war against England had been won.
But it was only a calm before the first of many storms.

Tensions rise high between the royals when King Belarus demands that his son add another key member to his now faltering court: former General to the English army, the devilishly charming and handsome, John Devereux. Making matter worse, Norvack not only learns that John shares an intimate past with Cinder, but that his new right hand man may be the key to his apparent downfall.

Meanwhile, as Cinder struggles with the arrival of her former lover and is forced to face a part of her past she had long wished to forget, she realizes that her husband has found a new loyal confidant in her personal handmaiden, Brigita. On the night of a disastrous blizzard she searches for the two outside of the palace but instead comes face to face with a man she was certain to never see again, forcing the entire family to come to a deciding conclusion regarding the night Willem was killed.
