The Fool's Crown https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H6KCTC5J Free on Kindle Unlimited, 4.99 for Kindle, 13.99 Paperback. A princess who sees too much.A fool who notices everything.A kingdom built on mercy that always seems to benefit the powerful. Princess Beatrice has spent her life at court, watching favors masquerade as justice and generosity conceal calculation. She knows how power works because she has spent years studying the machinery behind it. Felix Nape survives by being harmless. The king's fool tells jokes, performs tricks, and wanders freely through halls where serious people conduct serious business. Most of the court dismisses him. Most of the court is making a mistake. As unrest grows beneath the kingdom's polished surface, Beatrice becomes involved with a hidden network working to protect the people most easily forgotten by the crown. Felix begins to notice things he should not know—and chooses, again and again, what to do with that knowledge. Around them, routes collapse. Informants disappear. The king's crackdown climbs steadily upward through the chain. And through it all, a princess and a fool discover the rarest thing in a palace full of performance:Someone who truly sees them. The Fool's Crown is a character-driven fantasy about power, conscience, loyalty, and the quiet choices that matter long before history notices them. Perfect for readers who enjoy thoughtful political fantasy, slow-burn romance, intelligent court intrigue, and emotionally rich character relationships.
