To Save a King

True Blue Royal, Book 2

By: Rachel Hauck

Narrated by: Louise Lee

A modern-day fairy tale of hope and rescue from NYT best-selling author Rachel Hauck.

After growing up in small-town Hearts Bend, Tennessee, Gemma Stone set off to Hollywood to make her mark in the world. But her ambition turned into a journey of a “thousand” bad decisions, and after 12 years of seeking fame and fortune, Gemma returns home with a limp and a dark secret.

Now, she runs a rescue ranch and is raising her friends’ orphaned daughter. She’s keenly aware these defenseless ones are also rescuing her. She just wants to stay hidden in the safe world she’s created.

HRH Crown Prince John has learned a royal title cannot shield him from heartbreak. As heir to the revered House of Blue and married to the love of his life, he believed his future reign would strengthen the royal dynasty of Lauchtenland. Then, tragedy changed everything. Can anything save him from his grief?

When he travels to Hearts Bend on a mission for his mother, Queen Catherine, he’s drawn into the local life and cajoled into a three-legged race with the beautiful Gemma Stone during the Fourth of July festivities.

While the event has a disastrous result, Prince John and Gemma form a quick friendship - one of two wounded souls finding comfort in one other. However, love is absolutely not an option. John desperately wants to hold on to the memories of his wife, and Gemma refuses to trust her heart to any man. Even a prince.

Then, Prince John is called home for an emergency. How can he leave the woman who lifted him from his sorrows? But can Gemma join him on a royal stage and risk her secret coming to light?

With a touch of divine help, Prince John and Gemma just might find the kind of love that saves and ultimately write their very own fairy tale.

To Save a King is book two in the True Blue Royal series.

Clean romantic story with more realistic characters than expected

The story opens with two characters that you get to know very well with their unique backgrounds, experiences and expectations. The story was nicely done with real life instances and overtures, heartwarming friendships and a happy ending

A beautiful story of love and forgiveness

This book is clean, fun, and full of heart. If you ever need a pick me up then this is the heartwarming story to do it.

No passport required for this journey

I love how Rachel Hauck weaves her stories together!! To Save a King will not disappoint Hauck’s royal fans. I enjoyed visiting familiar locations and characters as Hauck leads John and Gemma on their quest of what it means to be a true Blue royal. This contemporary read is a delightful escape without a passport.

Loved this story so much

What a gift Rachel Hauck has - Wow to how she weaves such a real story together with the fairytale allegory thread so well together. The whole royalty theme can be overdone but this author personalizes the characters so well and with believable personalities and lives. So many true to life deep issues addressed. It was a beautiful story of the intimate aspects of forgiveness to yourself and each other that isn’t just lip service, along with such a balanced storyline that kept me poised for what was next. An artful way to open up a gentle introspection in the reader’s heart on multiple levels. I loved it so much.
I can’t believe I waited so long to listen to this series- one more to go and I am really looking forward to seeing how this series “wraps up”.

Rachel Hauck is AMAZING!

I’ve loved everything she’s written…great stories, wonderful characters and such heartwarming life lessons!!! Always leaves me uplifted!

enjoyed the whole thing

I love all of this authors books. this one did not disappoint either. looking forward to the next!

Heart-warming love and dreams coming true.

So enjoyable. Loving the couple and challenges that they faced. Rachel knows how to touch your heart. On to her next book.

Wow! Overcoming obstacles!

Another fantastic royal book by Rachel Hauck! All of them are so different, yet all so good! Can GemStone overcome her past to be Princess material? With the help of Immanuel, all things are possible! I really enjoyed this listen. The narrator has such character, it’s fun to listen!

Loved it!

Wow, all the twists and turns in this one! Great story and couldn't wait for the wrap up. Totally recommend!

Another Great Book by Rachel Hauck

This book is a second in a series but stands alone, so can be read out of order.

I loved the development of characters, the plot twists (some obvious and some only obvious with hindsight). It is fiction with spiritual truths built in.

It didn’t take long before I was listening everywhere I was because I couldn’t put it down.

We could all use a Prince John and Chandler in our lives! The main character, Jenna has you pulling for her throughout.

A great book to get lost in.
