The King's Unlikely Heart
A love story between a ruthless prince and a commoner—bound by fate, torn apart by power.
Fiona Bennett is an ordinary girl born into a large, struggling family. As the third of six siblings, she has no remarkable beauty, wealth, or talent. Yet, she possesses an unwavering optimism and a heart full of kindness. Life has never been easy for her, but no matter how difficult things get, she refuses to give up hope.
On the opposite end of the spectrum stands Prince Julian Valorian, the third prince of King Maximilian Valorian and Queen Elena Valorian of the Kingdom of Helmara. Raised under the iron rule of his ruthless father, Julian has grown into a feared and merciless warrior, believing that power is the only path to survival. In the king’s eyes, he is the strongest candidate for the throne, yet the people and even his own kin see him as a tyrant in the making.
By a twist of fate, Julian—cold, battle-hardened, and feared by many—crosses paths with Fiona, a girl who knows nothing of war or politics. Their encounter is unexpected, their connection unlikely, but the bond that forms between them threatens to shake the foundations of the kingdom.
As power struggles, betrayals, and hidden enemies lurk in the shadows, can love truly flourish between a prince and a commoner? Or will duty, fate, and the merciless hands of destiny pull them apart forever?
