Adrian Devereux

He is Prince Adrian of Valmere, cold, disciplined, and untouched by emotion. Every part of his life is dictated by duty, from the words he speaks to the woman chosen to stand beside him. She is his arranged partner, the daughter of a diplomat, graceful, composed, and perfectly suitable for the crown. To the world, they are flawless. But behind the palace walls, they live in silence, strangers bound by obligation, not love.
