I have no name. I have no heart. My home is everywhere. I am the General's daughter. *** The war between the Great Desert Kingdom of Asteria and the Kingdom of Evanlea has taken so many lives and livelihoods from both for the past hundred years, and to stop the war, a truce has been made: both kingdoms agreed for the eldest daughter of Asterian ruler and the youngest son of the Evanlean monarch to marry. It has already been seven years since Yvanna's father assigned her role in the warrior clan 'el-Mejihien household--to be an information-gatherer. She was then stripped off of her title, of her name, of her individuality, and left to fend for herself in an obscure orphanage. As her coming of age closes, the high priestess assigns a job only she can manage to do: to be her eldest daughter to be sent off to the Kingdom of Evanlea.

After the tragic loss of her family, Emerson is adopted by the head of the royal courts. She uses the loss of her family to save other people around her. Emerson uses her magic to steal and kills to provide for those who have no magic at all. She uses her magic to rise the ranks and make a name for herself in the city. However, her adopted family makes her keep a magic a secret, if anyone finds out about where her magic actually came from. If someone found out she would be hunted and killed. One day she is offered a job that could help hundreds of people that job, she is to kill the High Heir of Ignacia. After the death of his Father, Prometheus Ryegulias Brande, is now the High Heir and ruler of Ignacia. As one of the strongest Burners in years, Rye must step up and fill in the role that his Father has left for him. With Rye's rule a new High God must be chosen, one to rule over all of the Seven Royal Regions, including Ignacia. In order to compete for the throne Rye must be Betrothed, so he throws a competition to find a powerful match that would help him win the throne. At the competition Emerson focuses on assassinating the High Heir, for what she thinks is the greater good. However, a steep betrayal causes her failure. Rye finds out about the assassination and calls for her public execution, but before he can kill her, she reveals the one secret she has been hiding for seventeen years. Instead of killing her Rye uses this to his advantage and gives Emerson a choice. With her choice the two are tied together and are a battle that might cost them their lives. With enemies from every region and those planning their demise, the two must fight for the throne with everything they've got. While they fight for the throne they also fight for each other's hearts. In a battle of wills the characters must risk their lives to save all seven regions or die trying.
