#SampleSunday: To Conquer the Heart of a King

Excerpt:

"Yes," said the Seer in a quiet voice. "You will be king…until your people rise against you."

"That's a lie!" Lukas of Falkenberg spoke to her now for the first time. She did not brace herself as he grabbed her shoulders. "You can't know the future."

"Of course I can't, but I see the present very clearly. Let me finish! If you rule with a stone heart like your father, if you steal the food from your subjects' mouths–"

"What you say is treason," he growled.

"Is it so hard to see the difference between treason and truth?"

A woman who knows the future but not her own past. The son of a king who must fight for his crown. They will come together to get what they each desire. Their pact will turn to passion…but will they realize it before intrigue tears them apart?

Before Lukas of Falkenberg returns to the Black Forest to take the throne from his dying father, he pays a visit to the nameless and sightless Seer at the Cloister of Mariendorf. He takes her captive to use her intuition to establish his reign. She willingly trades the punishing confines of the cloister for a palace prison in the hope of gaining her ultimate freedom. Although blind, she can see what the future king cannot—the needs of his subjects. She will win them over, but can she conquer the heart of a king before his half-brother Magnus separates them in a plot even she cannot foresee?
