Description
Everyone believes Ivy's parents-the king and queen-were killed in a tragic carriage accident and that she went missing, never to be seen again. But she knows the truth. She knows that King Rymond, the man who took the throne after her parent's death, is really the one who killed them and chased her from her home. She lives in hiding . . . until the day the soldiers find her. Then she is on the run with her life in constant danger. Kenric, an ex-soldier saves her and is brought, rather unwillingly, into the chase that has become her life. She knows what she must do. She must take the sapphire broach-the symbol of her lineage-to Rymond's throne, prove herself, and expose his treachery, but she is loath to do it, for it could have deadly consequences. Can she put her personal fears behind her and save her kingdom, or is the price of truth too great for one woman to bear?
