King of Joy (Virtuous Crowns Prequel)
Overview
A dying healer. A devoted king. A love that will heal them both.
When King Edmund rescues a dying village healer from a winter storm, he believes he's simply doing his duty. But Alice, fragile in body yet fierce in spirit, awakens something in his heart he thought lost forever: joy.
Alice has spent her life healing others while her own health deteriorates with each passing winter. Now, recovering in the king's castle, she finds herself surrounded by more than just silver's healing properties. Edmund's gentle devotion and unwavering faith stir her soul in ways she never expected. But can a common healer truly become a queen?
As Edmund's jealous brother schemes to separate them and the court questions a king's choice to marry for love rather than alliance, both Alice and Edmund must learn that faith isn't just about believing in Elohim's plan, it's about having the courage to follow where He leads, even when the path seems impossible.
A heartwarming medieval retelling of "Good King Wenceslas" that celebrates sacrificial love, divine timing, and the truth that the greatest nobility comes not from a crown, but from a compassionate heart.
*This book is a Christmas exclusive and will only be available each December and for a short time in July for Christmas in July.*
