Coming to America meets Bridgerton in this enthralling,
contemporary debut novel by L.R. Jackson which blurs the lines of
forbidden romance and showers hopeless romantics with a second-chance
love reunion.
Unlike fairy tales of old, sometimes a woman must fight to save her
king.
Ebony Rose desires the freedom to love without limits--but that's for
people who aren't harboring the kind of skeletons that could threaten
their very existence. Desperately running from her past and a broken
heart, Ebony refuses to allow anyone to get close to her--until she
crosses paths once more with Dafari, the knight in shining armor she
lost long ago.
The last thing King Dafari expects to find in New York is the girl who
got away--although he had hoped. Marrying a woman outside of his culture
is strictly forbidden, and the clock is ticking for him to choose a
queen. However, Ebony Rose embodies all the qualities he seeks in a mate
and a matriarch for his country, and Dafari is determined to make Ebony
his, despite the laws and traditions that stand between them. Then he
makes a grave discovery that causes his world to spiral and leave him
questioning everyone he loves.
Secrets buried under betrayal emerge, threatening to destroy the bond
between Ebony and Dafari. Will they survive the sinister conspiracy
surrounding them, or will royal misdeeds and scandal topple their chance
at redemption and true happiness?
"The Accidental Queen will be your new obsession! Its diversely
crafted world and wicked-sharp detail speaks to why L.R. Jackson is the
multifaceted author we all need." --Shanora Williams, New York Times
