As the fifth daughter of a man who only values sons, Madeline has grown up unloved, neglected, and forbidden from the one thing she loves. She never knew her mother and despises her father who views her as an inconvenience at best. As a little girl, she naively believed she'd be able to be free one day, but as she grows up, she realizes what a foolish hope that was. She reconciles herself to an unwanted marriage when her father decides it's time, consoling herself with the thought of at least being free of him eventually. But a marriage is not what her father has planned and little does Madeline know that marrying a stranger is not the worst path that can be chosen for her. When she learns that she is intended to become the prince's mistress, she thinks she'd rather die. Unfortunately if she doesn't comply, her father might just make that her alternative.

Just seventeen, Keira is not eager to decide the rest of her life, but as usual, she will not have much choice. She has always known she would have to marry - and well, but as the deadline nears, she begins to feel more and more suffocated. It doesn't help that most of her prospects are tedious, arrogant, sometimes entirely revolting, and only interested in using her for some advantage with her father. The only man she can stomach the thought of accepting, also offers the most terrifying future - as royalty. Keira loves Alex, but not romantically, and she doesn't believe she ever will. Not that it keeps him from trying to convince her otherwise....But if it was possible, would love make the rest of it bearable? Especially considering her alternatives? Just as she begins to allow herself to believe in the possibility of a romantic future, someone sets out to destroy it all. When Keira is kidnapped, she realizes just how much she has taken for granted - Alex included. She must find a way to rescue herself and make it home to spoil her abductors' plans. Unfortunately she doesn't know how to get home or even how far it might be. She has no food, no supplies, and no idea how to survive on her own. And asking the wrong person for help could be disastrous. (Sequel to Keira's Fire & Daughter of the Rebellion)
