Royal by Danielle Steel is a spellbinding tale set during World War II. As the war rages on in the summer of 1943, the King and Queen make a difficult decision: they quietly send their youngest daughter, Princess Charlotte, away to live in the Yorkshire countryside. Despite her fiery nature, Charlotte uses an alias and settles into a life out of the spotlight.
There, she befriends a young evacuee and trains with her cherished horse. Unexpectedly, she falls deeply in love with her protector’s son. But secrets kept for nearly two decades come to light, revealing a long-lost princess.
