MARRIED TO THE THRONE

Two empires. One forced marriage. A love neither side ever wanted - until they couldn't survive without it.

Nyla Kingsley has spent six years grieving a brother she lost to a war her family never officially declared - a silent, simmering feud with the Duval dynasty that has haunted Atlanta's West Side ever since. When gunfire tears through her family's biggest development site, the fragile truce holding two powerful families apart is finally about to break for good.

There's only one way to stop it: marriage. Not for love. For survival.

Malachi Duval never wanted a wife handed to him by two desperate fathers trying to save their empires from a hostile takeover and from each other. He definitely never expected the woman on the other side of the arrangement to be sharp enough to match him move for move, guarded enough to understand exactly what he's lost, and dangerous enough to make him forget every reason he had for keeping his heart locked down tight.

What starts as a business arrangement - separate bedrooms, careful boundaries, a united public front to save two empires from ruin - becomes something neither of them planned for. Late nights bent over spreadsheets turn into late nights that have nothing to do with business at all. A cautious partnership turns into a real one. And just when Nyla and Malachi start believing they might actually build something true out of the wreckage of an old war, a hidden enemy moves to destroy everything - using a betrayal buried inside Nyla's own family to burn the fragile peace to the ground.

Now husband and wife have to decide how far they're willing to go - for their families, for the empire riding on their marriage, and for each other.

Married to the Throne is a full-length, standalone urban romance drenched in old money, older grudges, and the kind of slow-burn love that starts as a strategy and ends as a vow. If you love:

• Enemies-to-lovers arranged marriage romance

• Rival family power dynasties with everything on the line

• A guarded heroine and a protective, steady hero who chooses her every single time
