My trilogy is actually a 20th century royalty romance
As someone drawn to the elegance of old traditions and grand palaces, I understand how easy it is to assume my novel, The Crown Princess and the Footman, belongs to the historical fiction genre. The aesthetic might feel like something out of the 1950s. But here’s the truth: it’s not historical fiction at all.
My novel is romance—plain and simple, but with a royal twist. Specifically, it’s set in a fictional 20th-century kingdom where modern developments are just beginning to intersect with old-world customs. It’s a time of gentle change: telephones exist, trains connect cities, and photography is catching moments.
At the heart of the story is a connection between two people from vastly different walks of life: Crown Princess Elena of Neeve and a palace footman she once knew as a boy. Their romance is intimate and personal, yet framed within a larger world of royal duty and expectation.
So, while the setting may echo the elegance of the past, this isn’t a tale about real history or political revolutions. It’s about love—the kind that defies social boundaries, time, and expectations.
If you enjoy romantic tension, forbidden affection, and the quiet beauty of two souls rediscovering each other, The Crown Princess and the Footman was written for you.
