A princess facing a difficult decision...
Crown Princess Janet has refused every suitor that has come to ask her hand, and not because of Malcolm of Bonaparte! He is a friend and nothing more! She is the future of Avanna, a woman who wields substantial power both through position and her own magic abilities. She must choose carefully.
A warrior determined to protect what matters...
Malcolm will do what he must to protect the woman who has always been his closest friend. Even if that means lying to her- about who he is and what he feels. And when her family falls under a dark curse, he is the only one she can trust to get her to the Forest Tower, home of the ancient wizard, Merlin.
Dangers lie around every turn in the road and a former friend hunts them every step at the behest of a dark enemy. But the greatest danger lies ahead- a confrontation with an evil every bit as ancient and powerful as their salvation.
And beyond all that, Janet must contend with something she has spent years denying- her own heart.
