The Regent's Runaway Bride

Anna Vance once served as the bonded mana provider to Prince Regent Elliott Raine, until she watched what seemed to be his wedding to Vivian and overheard him dismiss her as a mere instrument. Shattered by grief over her grandmother's passing, she left Emerald City behind. Three years on, she comes back as the leader of the Vance family and is pulled straight into a whirlwind of false royal claims, Council intrigue, and bloodline magic. Elliott is now working hard to win her heart and get to the bottom of what really happened, leaving Anna to weigh whether the love that once broke her deserves a second chance.
