If you’re a historical romance fan, you *need* to be reading Unexpected Circumstances by Shay Savage.

The first three books (The Handmaid, The Seduction, The Consummation) are already out; book 4, The Shortcoming, is out today!

Sir Branford and his Lady Alexandra have been getting to know one another, and now that they’ve consummated their marriage, their relationship becomes even deeper and more romantic.

However, the conflict with Hadebrand (the trigger for Branford choosing Alexandra as his wife) escalates with dire consequences for the kingdom of Silverhelm.

As the bond between Alexandra and Branford deepens, they each have their hopes for the future. Branford aspires to lead his kingdom with both wisdom and a firm hand while Alexandra fervently wishes to give her husband an heir.

As Alexandra learns to embrace her noble role, she finds friendship with the girl she rescued from an abusive owner. It seems as though their lives have finally rewarded them with the happiness they have sought.

But happiness comes at a price, for war is on the horizon.

The neighboring kingdom of Hadebrand has amassed an army, and against insurmountable odds, Branford must lead the fight for his people. Alexandra is terrified but cannot let her fear show for she must serve as an example to their kingdom.

The war must eventually end, but there is only one thing on Branford’s mind—to continue the royal lineage. But how will Alexandra overcome her heartache when she can’t give her husband the one thing he must have?

Ugh, I can already feel the angst coming, which makes me scared/nervous/excited!
