Perfect for anyone who enjoyed the Salt Kisses series... Beautiful and spirited pagan princess Elayne has been offered in marriage to the legendary Sir Lancelot. Although the whole thing is marred with complications, Elaine finds the idea hard to resist, and it seems that Lancelot too, could be finally willing to move on from his checkered past and embrace the union. But there are those in the land who are less than thrilled about the prospect, namely the pious and unhappy Queen Guinevere, who just so happens to be both Elayne's cousin and Lancelot's long-term, not-so-secret lover. Politics dictate the deal urgently needs to be sealed, but will Guinevere step aside or will her bitterness drive her to turn to a magic, so dark that even its sorcerer may refuse to unleash it?
