Princess Aisha's life takes an unexpected turn when she's bound to the enigmatic Abyad Prince, Hassan, in a marriage meant to halt the tides of war between their lands. But as ancient rivalries resurface and rebels plot against her, Aisha must navigate treacherous terrain to ensure her own survival.
