The Head That Wears the Crown by Mariah Stewart
Over 950 5-Star Reviews!
A fortysomething woman’s ordinary life takes a royal detour when she discovers she’s heir to an exiled monarchy in this engaging novel about family legacy, courage, and stepping up when it matters most by New York Times bestselling author Mariah Stewart.
Annaliese—Annie—Gilberti is a divorced South Philadelphia mother of two with a nine-to-five job when a shocking discovery turns her world upside down: her late grandmother was the exiled ruler of a small European country, and Annie is next in line to wear the crown and restore the monarchy.
With just enough vacation time to take a quick trip, Annie heads to the Grand Duchy of Saint Gilbert to see it for herself. It’s easy to fall in love with the villagers, the family’s ancestral home of Castle Blanc—with its hidden rooms and passages—and maybe even the dashing Maximilien Belleme, captain of the castle guard.
But as Annie, her sisters, and her children begin bringing Saint Gilbert into the modern age, she also uncovers a legacy of courageous women—and learns that no threat is too great to deny the grand duchess her rightful throne.
