It's time for Lord Thornbeck's story!
Reinhart
is the Margrave of Thornbeck, and he must find a wife who will please
the king. And Avelina is a servant who must pretend to be the Earl of
Plimmwald's daughter to please her lord.
Avelina never intended to make the powerful and gruff margrave fall in love with her. She only wanted to avoid being found out and get back home to her injured father and little brother and sister. She also never intended to fall in love with the wounded, brooding, volatile Lord Thornbeck.
Reinhart inherited the margravate from his brother, who was killed in a fire which also caused permanent injury to Reinhart's ankle, forcing him to walk with a cane. He never forgave his brother for falling in love with his servant and getting her with child. And he never wants to end up in a painfully broken marriage such as his parents'.
What will happen when he discovers the Earl of Plimmwald's daughter has been pretending and making a fool of him? Why should he even care what happens to her, now that he knows she is only a servant girl? But someone seems to want her dead. It may be up to the clever servant girl to save herself and the margrave from enemies they never knew they had.
