This story is about a long suppressed love triangle between Leonidas Tachezy, a high-level Austrian career bureaucrat, his younger, trophy wife Amelie, and a Jewish woman from his past, Vera Wormser, with whom he'd fallen in love when she was fourteen. After his marriage, Leonidas encounters Vera in a German university town where she is studying philosophy. He makes a promise that implies marriage, but drops out of her life entirely to return to a comfortable existence until one day when a letter arrives, addressed with Vera's unmistakable handwriting in pale blue ink. Like Humbert Humbert in Lolita, Leonidas explains his "crime" against Vera to an imaginary courtroom in a way that anticipates Nabokov.

Prince Edgar Sigor just wants to be left alone. But as his brother, the king, grows increasingly ill with no legitimate heir, Edgar is unlikely to get his wish. Countess Flora Byrne wants to help her family and the kingdom, but she begins to question whether or not her closest friends have the same priorities. Presley Kemp, dealing with his own relationship problems, suddenly finds himself helping to judge prospective matches for the prince. But no one is as surprised to be involved in the marriage plans as the young and romantic Rohesia Swithin. Who Edgar might marry becomes the most contentious issue in the kingdom, even while war threatens. Picking up three years after For Her Own Good, Royal Obligation delves deeper into the world of Myrcia, but can be enjoyed on its own.
