About this ebook

Sixteen-year-old Allyssa appears to be the ideal princess of Emperion—she’s beautiful, elegant, and refined. She spends her days locked in a suffocating cage, otherwise known as the royal court. But at night, Allyssa uses her secret persona—that of a vigilante—to hunt down criminals and help her people firsthand.

Unfortunately, her nightly escapades will have to wait because the citizens of Emperion may need saving from something much bigger than common criminals. War is encroaching on their kingdom and in order to protect her people, Allyssa may have to sacrifice her heart. Forced to entertain an alliance through marriage with a handsome prince from a neighboring kingdom, she finds herself feeling even more stifled than before. To make matters worse, the prince has stuck his nosy squire, Jarvik, to watch her every move.

Jarvik is infuriating, bossy and unfortunately, the only person she can turn to when she unveils a heinous plot. Together, the unlikely pair will have to work together to stop an enemy that everyone thought was long gone, one with the power to destroy her family and the people of Emperion. Now the cage Allyssa so longed to break free from might just be the one thing she has to fight to keep intact. In order to save her kingdom, she will have to sacrifice her freedom, her heart, and maybe even her life.

from the first page this story opened a world & placed the reader right into its well established perimeters. It was so wonderfully layered, with a score of characters that were as deeply detailed and embued with personalities and emotions so well maintained that gave heart to this world you slipped into. Never a loss of stride, or need to build up, you were just there and what an incredible level it continued on! I have never commented before, but I had to say thank you for a really great read & a huge wow! You have a wonderful gift & truly an exceptionally talented writer! I hope to read the next book. Best luck & much happiness. Anna

This story grips you from start to end. A very enjoyable read and can't wait for the next book. It is seriously time for the good people to win. Can't understand how the assassin can be better than the hero, hopefully our heroin will beat the assassin. Now that would be justice.

Brilliant read. Had me at the edge of my seat wanting more. You'll find yourself not being able to put the book down. And before you know it, the story has come to an end at the most crucial moment, making you Screaming 'No!'. It can't possibly end there? Then you'll be scrambling like an addict to find the next book in the series. Don't say I didnt warn you though.
