I’m excited to share a new update on the next chapter of the Royal Hearts series.
Book Two, The Gilded Cage, has officially entered the ARC phase.
For those who may not be familiar with the term, ARC stands for Advance Review Copy. This stage is where early readers receive the book before publication so they can provide feedback and honest reviews ahead of release. It’s an important step in the publishing process and helps ensure the book is as strong as possible before it reaches everyone else.
Seeing The Gilded Cage reach this stage is incredibly rewarding. This second installment dives deeper into the political intrigue, emotional stakes, and relationships that began in The Lotus and the Crown. The story grows darker, the choices become more difficult, and the consequences of power and love begin to unfold in ways that will shape the future of the series.
One of the most exciting milestones is just around the corner…
The official cover reveal for The Gilded Cage is coming soon.
I’ve been working on several different concepts, and I can’t wait to finally share the final design. The cover captures the themes of the book beautifully and gives a glimpse into the world and tension waiting inside its pages.
If you’ve already read Book One – The Lotus and the Crown, thank you so much for supporting the beginning of this journey. Your feedback, messages, and enthusiasm have meant more than you know.
If you’re new to the series, now is the perfect time to start.
