Bride to the King

Dutiful, demure and far lovelier than she knows, Princess Zosina, the eldest daughter of the Archduke Ferdinand of Lützelstein, is reluctantly obedient when her father announces that she must marry King Gyórgy of neighbouring Dórsia in order to create an alliance between the two nations that will defend them against the threat from the German Empire.

Arriving in Dórsia on a State visit she is greeted by the country’s Regent, a kind, handsome and very considerate Prince. By contrast and much to Zosina’s dismay, her future husband King Gyórgy is as wild and disagreeable as his reputation had suggested.
It seems that for the sake of her country she must yield to a life without love — until dramatic events supersede even the power of Kings and the hope is rekindled in the young Princess Zosina’s heart that happiness and true love will triumph after all.

Quotes

    I knew was that when I touched your hand – I felt as if you protected me and gave me courage.”
  • Farida Yasserhas quoted4 years ago
    “It is not only your beauty that made my heart beat from the moment I first saw you, but your sweetness, your charm, your clever little brain and above all because we understand each other.”
  • Farida Yasserhas quoted4 years ago
    is full of wisdom,’ she thought to herself.

    But she knew it was not only that, it was almost as if they thought along the same lines and she too looked towards the horizon as he was doing.
