The Protector and the Heart of the Realm
Titus Cambridge was born next in line to rule the Hackura Realm. To be the King who stands as the Protector over everyone else. How does he deal with that when tragedy befalls his family and sends his cousin running away? Anger festers inside him over his inability to bring Benny Cambridge home where he belongs. That is until he finds the Heart of the Realm, his reason to stay home and become the ruler he was always meant to be.
Veronica Manning thought she knew exactly how her life was going to go. She had it all mapped out. Then betrayal overshadows her sixteenth birthday, the life she thought she’d have descending into chaos. Quickly picking up the pieces of her shattered heart, Veronica becomes beloved by all who know her. She is tender-hearted as far as the Hackura go, which draws people to her. Cross her, and she’s cut throat.
Children of the realm are her passion and she fiercely protects both them and her family. As a Lord’s daughter, she is no novice when it comes to matters of the realm. When she finally crosses paths with Titus everything in her life makes sense.
Yet there are those lurking in the shadows that want to undo the happiness she has found with Titus. Those that wish to harm her family.
Follow on their journey to see the shadows they uncover and those that remain shrouded in darkness still lurking to be uncovered one day.

Emotional Rollercoaster
Titus and Veronica are destined for each other and seeing how they finally come together is fabulous! I don’t usually cry while reading a book, but this book got me! The Hackura bond allows their family to feel their emotions and I was right there with them for all the highs and lows! This book starts before the original Ribbon strand book one and gets into it a bit. It’s a great stand alone but even better with the series .

Great book
This book was very interesting I really liked the intake of Veronica and Titus I will say when they ended look forward to reading more books from this series I'm currently caught up with all except one the newest one that just got posted for Christmas so I would definitely recommend to everyone who likes a great story with great plots and great twists. I do recommend looking at all the books in the series they're all amazing and very intriguing

Another stunning book in the Ribbon series
I love that we get Titus and Veronica's back story. Some things are revealed/answered and other things prompt new questions. Wonderfully written, the characters feel real and alive and the emotions are relatable.
