Summary
Regina B. Alfare, the cherished princess of the Elias Empire, saw her life crumble when her betrothed, the Duke of Seulvei, ignited a bloody rebellion. Slain in battle, she awakens years earlier, before the empire’s collapse. The root of its ruin lies with Theor, the emperor’s foolish son, whose abrupt shift from liability to guardian enabled traitors to rise. To save her world, Regina must reshape Theor into a worthy successor—without letting his incompetence linger. She’ll thwart the emperor’s untimely death, divert the scheming nobility, and if playing the fool herself is what it takes, she’ll do it brilliantly.
