Arydene Steele is an assassin who only kills those who deserve it. But after her latest job, she's captured by the royal guard and taken before the king and queen. Instead of execution, they offer her a deal: kill their eldest son, Prince Kassius, and all her crimes will be erased. Now living under the identity of Princess Celestria Riene Valdor from a distant kingdom, Arydene has until the winter ball-just three months away-to complete her mission. But as she gets closer to Kassius, she begins to question everything-including her growing feelings for the prince she was sent to kill. And then she discovers she isn't the only one trying to assassinate him. With hidden enemies closing in and betrayal at every turn, Arydene must decide where her loyalties truly lie-before someone else makes the choice for her.
