Description
In this breathtaking sequel to the national bestseller A Queen's Game, the love lives of three princesses are hopelessly entangled. Hearts will be broken, friendships betrayed, secrets revealed . . . and when it's all over, Europe's monarchies will never be the same.
Helene d'Orleans, exiled princess of France, was forced to break off her engagement to Prince Eddy because of a mistake from her past. But she's determined to win him back, even if it means pretending to court another prince.
Alix of Hesse is desperately in love with Prince Nicholas of Russia and promises to wait for him, no matter how long it takes. But what happens when her grandmother Queen Victoria introduces a new suitor . . . one who makes Alix question her heart?
May of Teck isn't even looking for love, just a crown-and now, after all her scheming, she might finally have found a way to marry Prince Eddy. So why can't she stop thinking about his younger brother, George?
In this stunning conclusion to the duology that began with A Queen's Game, Katharine McGee offers an intimate portrayal of a near-forgotten moment in royal history: a story of agonizing loss, of impossible choices, and of love-and hope-that defied the odds.

Reviews / Votes
? "A historical romance that is both frothy and insightful." -School Library Journal, starred review"Rich character development and clear plotlines make for a strong sequel." -Kirkus Reviews
"Hearts are broken, bonds are tested, secrets are revealed, and some characters find a measure of happiness amid (or despite) Queen Victoria's well-intentioned meddling. Read it with a box of tissues nearby." -Booklist
