The three young children of Adelard de Blays—two sons and a daughter—are separated when their father commits treason against the King of England. Follow each of their stories in The King’s Cousins, a new trilogy by Alexa Aston.
1342 A.D. – Spirited away when his father Adelard de Blays commits treason, bastard Quill Cardon longs to reclaim his family name when he reaches manhood and reunite with his half-siblings, Landon and Katelyn. Winning the king’s tournament at Smithfield and saving the life of Prince Edward leads to Quill being awarded an earldom and an estate of his own—but what he most desires is Lady Tristanna Willoughby, a woman he can never have.
Tristanna has served for years as a lady-in-waiting to Queen Philippa and has waited for the return of her betrothed, Jarrett Marsden, from the war in France. Tristanna dislikes Jarrett, who chases anything in a skirt, and longs to wed Sir Quill Cardon, an honorable knight who has captured her heart.
When circumstances change, Quill and Tristanna have a chance at happiness—until a man seeking revenge threatens to tear them apart.
Each book in The King’s Cousins Trilogy is a standalone story that can be enjoyed out of order.

Why did you write this book?
This is the last book in my medieval romance trilogy The King’s Cousins, so I needed to finish up the last story of the final sibling and give Quill his HEA.
What is your favorite genre to read?
I love reading just about anything, but I’m partial to romance, suspense, and thrillers.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
Miss Elizabeth Bennet rocks my world!
What are you working on at the moment?
I’m deep into my first-ever Regency trilogy, The St. Clairs, which will come out in spring and summer of 2019.
What books will we see from you in coming months?
Devoted to the Duke releases April 25. Midnight with the Marquess comes out May 23. Embracing the Earl is a June 20 release. And in July, a secondary character in these books, the Earl of Merrifield, will get his own story told!
