Vera never wanted to be Camelot’s queen. One day, she was a 21st-century waitress struggling to find a sense of purpose, and the next, she was ripped back to 7th-century England, where she is Queen Guinevere—loved by King Arthur, befriended by Sir Lancelot, and suddenly responsible for a kingdom balanced on the edge of ruin.
Sir Gawain is missing, and his powerful magic-detecting device is nowhere to be found. Sir Percival is minding the throne, doing his best to ignore the many nagging questions of the court. And Arthur, the king destined to unite Britain, has been murdered.

Almost.

After awakening an incredible healing gift within herself, Vera revives Arthur from the brink of death, setting her on a course to uncover a chain of secrets about the kingdom’s power and the real reason for her own return to Camelot.

Now Arthur must hide in the shadows—even from Merlin—lest his enemies learn the truth. For Camelot is under siege. Vera and the Knights of the Round Table are preparing for war against the high council of mages, who seek to control not just the realm, but all its magic too.
As enemies close in and betrayal lurks around every corner, Vera must decide what kind of queen she’ll be: a woman trapped by the fate written in legend—or the ruler willing to sacrifice everything to change the stars.

Keeper of the Grail continues the Lives of Guinevere saga, a sweeping story of adventure, fierce love, and a heroine determined to rewrite the legend itself.

Outlander-meets-The Princess Bride plus Camelot in a fresh, big-hearted, feminist, timeslip adventure reimagining the epic saga of King Arthur, as told from the perspective of his spunky and surprising queen, Vera – complete with time travel and good running shoes!

Vera always knew she didn’t fit in. When she learns that she is meant to be in another time, she leaps at the chance to embrace a new life in a world of valor, intrigue, and unexpected magic in this bold and romantic retelling of Arthurian legend . . .

22-year-old Vera is at a crossroads: waiting tables, grieving her previous relationship, and jogging aimlessly each morning as if toward an uncertain future. Then an odd man shows up at her workplace, insisting that she was once the legendary Queen Guinevere of Camelot, and that her lost memories hold the key to changing both the past and the present. Somehow, it all feels like the direction she’s been looking for. But when she asks the mysterious man to tell her more about Lancelot, Arthur, and a faithless queen, he can only say that much of what she’s heard about Camelot is wrong. The truth, he claims, is something she must see for herself.

After jumping through a portal in Glastonbury’s historic center, Vera is not prepared for what she finds. Magic is everywhere, but a curse on the kingdom means it dwindles every day. She has no idea how to perform a queen’s duties. Her fast friendship with Lancelot sets gossip flowing, and the stranger she must call “husband” often refuses to meet her eye. Arthur is a puzzle: cold, forbidding, and, while angry to her face, keeps leaving secret tokens of tenderness in her chambers. Worst of all, Vera’s memories—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 . . .
