    Shae, the High Queen of Erya, has one rule:
        Not to fall in love with her husband.
        
        Three years into their arranged marriage, Shae is still ignoring her attraction to the handsome king. A simple task when everyone knows the rumours of his love affair with the Sorceress Isobel; the woman he helped save the world, but was not allowed to marry.
        
        Felix, the High King of Erya, has one goal:
        To charm his wife.
        
        When an attack forces the couple into forced proximity to reach home safely, Felix sees the opportunity to finally get close to the queen. Defeating the Dark Disciple and his followers was nothing compared to his most challenging task yet; convincing his wife to give him a chance.
