Fae and Fidelity, #1 in The Vow
Coming January 4, 2027, from Edwards and Williams,
In Regency England, Kate Dewood would rather read intriguing history tomes while sitting under one of the oaks in her beloved forest than attempt to catch the eye of the wealthy lords who flock to the Lakes District for its natural beauty. So when a mysterious handsome stranger suddenly appears in her clearing, reciting some vow about pledging himself to her, she politely points him to the village and out of her life.
Prince Mael of the Tempest has come through the Ethereal Gap separating the land of humans and magic to offer himself in marriage in exchange for a rare flower that could save his people from death. But the lady he was led to seems to have no idea of her power and wants nothing to do with him. The more he doggedly pursues her, the more he begins to wonder if his noble sacrifice may be no sacrifice at all. It would be all too easy to fall in love with Kate.
