Follow one woman as she embarks on a journey of self-discovery in ‘The Royal Orphan’

Lanelle Thomas announces publication of new wholesome, young-adult romance filled with humor and tragedy


GRABILL, Ind., March 11, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- An 18-year-old orphan comes to work for her kingdom’s royal family and soon finds romance, personal growth and tragedy in Lanelle Thomas’ new novella for young adults titled “The Royal Orphan” (published by Archway Publishing).

 

Every spring in the kingdom of Olandia, representatives from the palace visit all the kingdom’s orphanages to round up those orphans who have turned eighteen without ever being adopted. The royal family then employs them as servants, giving them clothing, food, and shelter — a practice that provides for the kingdom’s citizens and helps prevent homelessness.

 

This year, Ellena is one of the orphans who has aged out. She’s excited to be leaving Madame Greer’s dreary, unpleasant orphanage, and she knows the royal family has a reputation for taking good care of those they employ. Once she is at the palace, she experiences rapid changes in just a few short weeks. She and Prince Jonathon are immediately drawn to one another, and when danger comes to the palace in the form of assassins, their budding romance undergoes a test that will change Ellena’s life forever.

 

Offering readers an escape through her novella, Thomas hopes they would like to read more from her as she plans on writing additional books.

 

“The Royal Orphan” is available for purchase online at the Archway link above, at Barnes & Noble and on Amazon at: https://www.amazon.com/Royal-Orphan-Lanelle-Thomas/dp/1480899917.
