He asked for it at Christmas

Maren always dreamed of being a princess… but without a prince! Suddenly, she finds herself with a castle – her own sanctuary, just like a princess… but it comes with a “lord of the castle” too!

And that’s not all!

For Acaste, winning Maren's hand was a matter of satisfaction and honour. Only gradually does he begin to realise that he has gained much, much more!

This story is a loose sequel to the January book, Bound Forever!
