In the cursed and gilded kingdom of Crespira, Princess Reed lives a life dictated by duty and suffocated by silk gowns. Trapped by her tyrannical father, the king, and a world that offers her no words to describe the truth of her heart, Reed longs for an escape.
But escape is a dangerous game when her dreams are of another woman-Appie, the court jester. A whirlwind of madness, music, and defiant love, Appie is everything Reed is not allowed to be. Their secret, forbidden romance burns in the quiet corners of the castle, a flame that promises both a future and utter ruin.
When the king discovers their affair, the game of pretending is over. The princess and the jester are cast out and hunted across the land, facing a merciless world with nothing but each other. Will their reckless love be enough to survive the storms, or will Crespira's bitter grasp prove too strong to ever truly escape?
