Falsely accused and dumped by the second prince, Angelique is cast out of high society and ordered by the king to marry a penniless earl in a distant, forgotten land. Expecting ruin, she instead finds a frustratingly handsome husband and a territory on the brink of collapse.

With sharp wit and zero tolerance for nonsense, Angelique takes charge. As she battles failing crops, scheming nobles, and unexpected feelings, she might just turn exile into the start of something extraordinary.
