When she learns that she is meant to be in another time, she leaps at the chance to embrace a new life in a world of valor, intrigue, and unexpected magic in this bold and romantic retelling of Arthurian legend . . .22-year-old Vera is at a crossroads: waiting tables, grieving her previous relationship, and jogging aimlessly each morning as if toward an uncertain future. Then an odd man shows up at her workplace, insisting that she was once the legendary Queen Guinevere of Camelot, and that her lost memories hold the key to changing both the past and the present. Somehow, it all feels like the direction she’s been looking for. But when she asks the mysterious man to tell her more about Lancelot, Arthur, and a faithless queen, he can only say that much of what she’s heard about Camelot is wrong. The truth, he claims, is something she must see for herself.After jumping through a portal in Glastonbury’s historic center, Vera is not prepared for what she finds. Magic is everywhere, but a curse on the kingdom means it dwindles every day. She has no idea how to perform a queen’s duties. Her fast friendship with Lancelot sets gossip flowing, and the stranger she must call “husband” often refuses to meet her eye. Arthur is a puzzle: cold, forbidding, and, while angry to her face, keeps leaving secret tokens of tenderness in her chambers. Worst of all, Vera’s memories—and the answers locked within them—show no signs of returning. If Vera is truly destined to save Camelot, she’ll have to trust her instincts. And her king will have to trust her . . .

Epic romance. Love that transcends time. Magic and destiny collide in this spellbound fantasy that readers can't stop talking about. "You have given me everything. I wouldn't trade my time with you for a long life."SOME LEGENDS DON'T TELL THE WHOLE STORYWhen tragedy shatters Vera's world, she's content to disappear into the quiet hum of hotel laundry rooms in Glastonbury. But when a mysterious guest reveals himself as Merlin and claims she's the long-lost Queen Guinevere, everything changes. As she is whisked back in time to seventh-century Camelot, she finds a kingdom teetering on the edge of ruin, and a dark curse threatening to consume the realm.As memories of another life begin to stir, Vera is thrown into a web of betrayal, power and heartbreak. The handsome King Arthur - the stranger she now calls "husband" - often refuses to meet her eye, keeps her at arm's length. He is cold, forbidding...yet tender, and she soon finds herself longing for his touch.In a world built on legends and lies, Vera must choose between the woman she was and the one she's become, before history repeats itself.This compelling and lushly written book is the first in an addictive new romantasy series that offers a wholly original retelling of Guinevere and Arthur's love story, perfect for fans of Outlander.Arthurian LegendsRomanceStrong FMCFound FamilyTime Travel FantasyMagicQuestsKnightsJOIN THE READERS WHO LOVE THE ONCE AND FUTURE QUEEN'Prepare to have Arthurian retellings ruined for you because THIS version is the one true Queen!''OH MY GOSH....
