Chapter 1

Adeleina of Corandell might be a girl and the heir to the throne, but that doesn't mean she can't swing a sword as well as any knight. Yet swords and pretty lies can only take a princess so far...

Mysterious attacks plague her kingdom. An enigmatic stranger intercepts her in the woods. Her impending betrothal looms. As dark secrets are unravelled, old wounds reopened, and deadly swords unsheathed, Adeleina is going to be forced to realize that fairy tales are never what they seem.
