With time running out, Joanna must journey across Darand's outer boroughs to its capital, facing danger at every turn, and prove her late mother's innocence ... or leave Darand to rot under her uncle's rule. It's a trip she'd planned to take alone, but when Chancellor Wolford catches wind his niece is not just alive but actively staging a coup, Joanna must turn to a shy (and handsome) metalsmith's apprentice for help. There's just one problem: The apprentice might've been the one to blow Joanna's cover. **Do NOT put this story on Goodreads, please. I appreciate it.**
