IN A TIME OF RASPUTIN'S MAGIC AND ROMANOV MYSTERY, A YOUNG
GIRL FINDS HERSELF AT THE HEART OF THE ROYAL FAMILY
She was an orphan, ushered into the royal palace on the
prayers of her majestry. Yet, decades later, her time spent in the embrace of
the Romanovs haunts her still. Is she responsible for those murderous events
that changed everything?
If only she can find the heir, maybe she can put together
the broken pieces of her own past-maybe she can hold on to the love she found.
Bursting to life with the rich and glorious marvels of Imperial Russia, The
Last Romanov is a magical tale of second chances and royal blood.
