Summary
Kalea Targaryen, beloved daughter of Baelor Breakspear, has spent her life as the most valuable marriage prize in the realm. Every lord seeks her hand. Constant marriage proposals at the royal doors, all for the heir’s only daughter.
Sent on a royal progress by King Daeron the Good to choose her own match, she goes to every part of the realm, determined to become the dutiful princess her family needs. To secure the strongest alliance, she is tasked to do this royal tour to choose her future husband. To give the king’s favorite grandchild a chance to pick her heart’s desire.
Her chosen escort? Prince Maekar Targaryen: warrior, widower, and the one man she should never love.
But distance from court was meant to quiet her heart, right? It was never meant to leave her alone with Prince Maekar.
As they travel throughout the realm, they begin to fall into a life that feels dangerously like marriage, and getting too comfortable with the life they have now. And with powerful houses preparing their proposals, Kalea faces an impossible truth:
How can Baelor’s daughter give her hand to a mere stranger… when her heart already belongs to another?
