In a kingdom divided by war and politics, Bound by the Crown tells the sweeping tale of Lady Elira of House Marlowe-a royal daughter thrust into an arranged marriage meant to pacify the rebellious North. Sent to wed Lord Ronan of Braegon, a hardened warrior with no taste for courtly games, Elira expects a life of quiet obedience and political distance.

But what begins as a union of strategy turns into a collision of strength and will.

As Elira and Ronan navigate mistrust, cultural rifts, and the scars of their pasts, sparks ignite in the shadows of duty. Together, they confront border raids, betrayal, and a rising rebellion that threatens not just their province-but the very heart of the kingdom. Along the way, Elira sheds her southern silk and embraces steel, proving herself not just a pawn of the crown but a sovereign in her own right.

When war comes to their doorstep, Elira rises as the true power behind the Northern revival-earning loyalty, commanding armies, and changing the fate of a realm. What begins in chains ends in devotion, and a love forged in fire gives birth to a legacy that will reshape the land forever.

Bound by the Crown is a story of reluctant allies turned fierce lovers, of strength born in silence, and of a woman who dares to remake her world-one choice at a time.
