My plan was simple ... return to Floodborn, enroll in the new academy, and earn the throne, all while returning the fae to our former glory and claiming my birthright. And yet nothing has been simple since the moment I arrived. Part of me should have known, and the other part blames the four men I can't seem to escape. Raiden. Kryll. Brody. Cassian. Each more frustrating than the next, and all adding up to nothing but chaos and distraction, neither of which I can afford. Not when my past and present are colliding, my secrets exposed in the process. But they underestimate me, every single one of them. And I'm determined to prove them wrong. Because it's a part of me, it's in my blood. And that crown ... is mine.

I'm not sure I would have survived this long without them and it's about time I stop ignoring my heart. The problem is, we walked right into their trap. But I'm not easy prey. I'm the rightful heir of Floodborn Kingdom and I'll stop at nothing to prove I am worthy. Fortune may favor the bold, but fate favors the brave and I plan to gather every ounce I possess to win my crown.

She didn't fold a single piece of laundry for seven months. One life-changing realization restored her sanity--and the functionality of her home: You don't work for your home; your home works for you. In other words, messiness is not a moral failing. A new sense of calm washed over her as she let go of the shame-based messaging that interpreted a pile of dirty laundry as 'I can never keep up' and a chaotic kitchen as 'I'm a bad mother.' Instead, she looked at unwashed clothes and thought, 'I am alive,' and at stacks of dishes
