The Last-Minute Queen

A romance of the Current Middle Ages

The wife of one of the two finalists at March Crown has just told him that she will not be Queen again.  So by law he needs to find someone else to be Queen if he wins.  The person he asks is more than she seems, and the consequences of his choice vaster than he could have guessed.
