When a marriage is arranged to bring peace among two feuding kingdoms, the princess betrothed is suddenly found dead; seemingly murdered within the walls of her own palace. With no clue as to who had killed her, the king suspects his enemy and almost declares war on them himself to avenge his daughter. However, the kings adviser has a solution. The kingdom had never been introduced to the Princess, let alone the enemy, since she had been raised in seclusion; so the strategy was born when one specific lady was present on the night of deliberation. Nesrin Langston, daughter of the captain of the royal guard, is chosen that night to take on the princess's identity and marry the enemy prince in her place, in order to maintain peace until the killer can be found and justice can be served. Can she endure a loveless marriage with a ruthless warlord for the sake of avenging the life of her best friend? Or will she crumble under the pressure and let everyone down?

Lyra knew that one day she would be set into an arranged marriage like a chess piece. She had been preparing for it her whole life, and she was almost alright with her fate. But she never thought that her father would choose the man that he did. That decision changed everything. The King of Whales is ruthless, more than twice her age and surrounded by tainted gold and loads of unsavory rumors. There have been many wives of his before Lyra, with no explanations to the untimely deaths of the previous five. With each dead Queen came more money from their kingdoms, straight into the King's portly lap. Disguised as a young man, Lyra runs from her duty as the only Princess of Nordic.

Will Lyra give herself up as Princess when she is reunited with her long-lost friend, or will she carry on as a boy with the mercenaries? Follow Lyra to see what she will do when she comes to realize that things have gotten far too big for her to handle on her own. There are assassin's out for her head, king's thirsting for her blood, and an underground network of people who live for her ruin.
