22-year-old Vera is at a crossroads: grieving, waiting tables, and jogging aimlessly each morning as if toward an uncertain future. When she discovers that she was once the legendary Queen Guinevere of Camelot, holding the key to saving England's past and future alike, it somehow feels like the direction Vera's been waiting for. She jumps through a portal into Camelot, but Vera's not prepared for her new life in the seventh century. She has no idea how to perform a queen's duties, her fast friendship with Lancelot sets gossip flowing, and Arthur--the stranger she must call "husband"--is a puzzle: outwardly cold and forbidding, but with a habit of leaving secret tokens of tenderness in Vera's chambers. Worst of all, the kingdom is cursed, and its magic dwindles every day. Vera's memories of being Queen--and the answers locked within them--show no signs of returning. If Vera is truly destined to save Camelot, she'll have to trust her instincts. And her king will have to trust her. . .
