Golden Crown — M. Lynn

A rebellious queen. A dying king. Etta once thought she wanted to kill Alexandre. Now, she will do anything to save him. She never wanted to be a queen, never thought of restoring her long-dead kingdom. Bela is in ruins, destroyed by years of abandonment and a recent battle, but still, it is the only safe place for her people. La Dame lurks on the border in Dracon, waiting for her revenge. In Gaule, magic folk are hunted and punished for their Belaen heritage. The magic folk crave peace. A trip into Gaule brings Etta face to face with the one person who can destroy her with one simple act: dying. No longer tied to Alex by magic, his death should mean nothing to her. As she learns more about who she truly is and the legacy of her family, she's forced to answer three questions. Can she save the king of Gaule? Can he be trusted if she does? And what will it mean for her people if she finds herself unable to let go of him again? Book 3 in the Fantasy and Fairytales series, Golden Crown will drag you into a story of adventure, sacrifice, and love.
