Three years ago, the Prince of Terrana managed the impossible-escaping the clutches of the Tyrant King.
Princess Relaina is used to the challenges accompanying her role: an obstinate father, pressure to marry, and concealing her frequent participation in fighting matches. But when rumors begin flying in her kingdom's capital, her world shifts. The elusive Prince of Terrana, heir to the neighboring kingdom ruled by a merciless tyrant, is believed to be somewhere within the city's walls, and many demand he be captured.
As Relaina navigates detestable suitors, family discord, and a growing connection with an infuriating yet kind farmer's apprentice, she discovers forces that seek to topple the continent's precarious peace. Swept into a world of violence and treachery, Relaina must decide for herself where to place her trust-and her heart.
