Daphne C Murrell

The Third King Daphne C Murrell

Third in line to the throne, young Andrew Braisogn has no aspirations to follow his father as monarch. He is talented, sensitive, and desires nothing more than a normal life away from the microscope focused at the royal family. But as fate works its way through the lives of his brothers, he may be forced to step into a role that will destroy all his dreams. Evangeline Dorvain has fought the battle between royal and common her entire life because of her mixed blood mother. Her father, however, a full-blooded royal, is one of the country's most respected military lawyers. No one is quite sure what to do with the beautiful, strong-minded young lady who seems to ignore bloodlines and boundaries. As she rises quickly in the world tennis circuit, suddenly the tiny nation of Braisognia is in the global spotlight and the country is forced to honor her. As Andrew and Evangeline cross paths, a forbidden friendship develops in which they both find great comfort and acceptance. But the ongoing hate and struggle between the classes threatens any happiness they might ever find alone ... or together.
