Foreign & Domestic Affairs – Now Available!
Mourning the death of their youngest son was difficult enough without the constant pressures of court upon the king and queen. While needing to rest and heal with their surviving children, the royal couple are torn away when unexpected visitors from abroad come to their shores on ill tides.
The king and queen have weathered many storms, they’ve saved a nation from crumbling, but, can the pair who married for love, who never wished to sit on the thrones, save their marriage, their family, and their crowns?
While the story is set in a fantasy world, how often do we find ourselves in a position where our jobs take over our lives and temptation is there to comfort us? We live in a culture where it’s expected of us to do the extra hours, to meet the next goal at work, while we miss the soccer games, postpone dinner, and are glued to our smartphones. While the king and queen in our story don’t quite have iPhones in their pockets, Gertrude and Breyton are faced with dilemmas that may ring true in our own lives. The pair have weathered many storms, they’ve saved a nation from crumbling, but, can the pair who married for love, who never wished to sit on the thrones, save their marriage?
