   Summary

   Rhaenyra was expecting John Hook, Heir of House Hook, to be like the other Nobles. All false smiles and lying eyes.

   John Hook expected an aloof and cold Princess.

   Instead they find themselves changing the story for the better, without lifting a single finger.

   (Or Rhaenyra gets a fairy tale romance while the Hightowers struggle to have anything go their way.)
