Eveangeline has never felt truly at place in the caste she calls home. She knows deep down she's a fraud–after all, she was only adopted because the King and Queen could not produce an heir. Shw doesn't hold it against them–-quite the opposite, she's grateful for everything this second chance at life has afforded her. Three days after her fathers death she is brought home from finishing school to begin preparations for taking over as the next ruler of Valencia, which includes a period of courting before her wedding in six months. Without a marriage, she won't be able to take the throne and will be damned if she is the reason for political instability in Valencia. But things are more complicated than they seem, with hidden enemies forcing Eveangeline to always stay on guard. It doesn't help that the men responsible for poisoning her father haven't been caught and brought to justice. Dangers lurk everywhere, and all that Eveangeline knows is that she can't trust her mother to tell the truth in the simplest of times, so how can she trust her now? The three princes vying for her heart couldn't be more different. Alwyn is the prince whom she shares the most history with, Sebastian is kind and thoughtful, and Adrian is charming, coming from a land where sirens rule the seas. But things are not always as they appear, and there is much at stake in this game of hearts. Will Eveangeline be able to keep her kingdom together? Or will her kingdom be torn apart by affairs of the heart?
