They called me unfaithful.
They never asked what I was promised.
I was educated, rational, and born into a world that valued none of those things in women.
When my father arranged my marriage to King Arthur, I believed I could make it work. I wore the crown well—navigating court politics, forging alliances with mages and fairies, and earning the trust of Merlin himself. I even believed I loved my husband, King Arthur…until I saw what power was turning him into.
Then I met Lancelot.
Our bond is instant. Violent. Inescapable.
A curse older than Camelot binds his magic to my life—and loving him could get us both executed. But destiny doesn’t care about crowns or laws.
As Camelot grows more dangerous and Arthur’s hunger for power tightens its grip, I must decide what I’m willing to sacrifice. Because in Camelot, loving the wrong man is treason—and treason is punished without mercy.
A sweeping, emotional Arthurian retelling filled with forbidden love, dangerous magic, and a queen who refuses to be remembered as the villain.
Perfect for readers who love destined lovers, instant connection, morally gray kings, and heroines who choose freedom—even when it costs everything.

“Another great read from Reut Barak! Honestly, I just love how all of these Evans Witches books connect together. This is the first story I’ve read about King Arthur told from Guinevere’s perspective. She’s always made out to be the villain, but not in this story. I cannot recommend this series of books highly enough.” C. Gruver on Amazon
“Yesss! This is what i want more of. I love retellings of any kind, but King Arthur is a favorite of mine. The book was fun and it flowed really well. It was different than i expected but that just made it all the better. Plus Queen Guinevere is a pretty awesome character to read about and i love that this was her story while still showing the story and characters i grew up loving.” – Mreowy on Amazon

“A little magic, little romance and a lot of great story!” – Roosterinroad, on Goodreads
“It’s a fun read and would appeal to fans of Half Sick of Shadows. The magic is a bit different as it connects this story with the two previous books in the Evans Witches series, but it also works as a standalone novel.” – InsomniacReading on Amazon
