Reluctant Queen

She never wanted to be Queen.

She never attempted to start an uprising.

Calynn loves her quiet village in the mountains, even without electricity and modern technology. When Lord Kazren announces he intends to make her his queen, she flees to the mountains.

Alone in the wilderness, eating berries and fishing in the stream to survive, she discovers an abandoned cabin and moves in. An old prophet brings her food and sage advice, and a wise elderly mountain woman befriends her. 

Things change when the hunter who previously inhabited the cabin shows up. This handsome man shows her a world she didn’t know existed, and she faces a decision to join that world or remain in the backward mountain valley. If she walks away from her village, she will lose the only people she has ever known. If she returns, she may be forced into a position as queen.

The choice is hers. Or is it?
