Queen of Independence by Karen Frances

 




Title: Queen of Independence
Author: Karen Frances
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: January 18, 2022


BLURB

Most people see Amelia Campbell as a socialite party girl.

But beneath the frivolity of her public persona, she is the driving force behind a serious charity fundraising portfolio.

Beautiful and intelligent, romance isn't high on the list as she enjoys her life of independence. With friends in royal circles, her influence and connection to events are always in high demand.

However, while pairing up with the Scottish government in a joint fundraising initiative, Harry Donaldson, the First Minister uncovers a secret that has the potential to rock the UK establishment. This secret poses a question that could threaten Amelia's existence as she knows it.

With a referendum on Scottish independence looming, Harry, seeing an ideal opportunity to shake the foundations of the UK government, should the vote land in his favour, he will do anything to make this happen.

When Harry enlists the help of bodyguard Liam McKenna to guard his asset, the plot thickens further when Liam uncovers the truth behind Harry's real intentions.

Going into this book, I knew it was going to be hard to read. Not because of the book itself but because of the author. More on that later. But what we get with Queen of Independence is a strong leading lady that you cannot help but adore Amelia. She is witty, fierce and ready to take on the world. But when threats are made, you get to see her vulnerable side as well. Then we have Liam who was initially hired to protect her but things get twisted up and he ends up hired by her. The slowish burn with the angst between these two just sizzle off the page and the whole concept behind this book is unique and very much the author, something I could not get enough of. 

As a whole, this story takes you on a stunning ride that I could not put down and did not want to end. My heart ached while reading this one. The raw emotions I was feeling as I went through every page was so evident because we no longer have this brilliant author among us anymore. But her words will live forever. Her legacy will always be there. If you are a Karen Frances fan, you will want this book in your collection. If this is the first book by this author that you have picked up, please snag up and devour the backlist of this amazing lady.
