Magnolia Isles is a kingdom focused almost entirely on the arts. The idea of families is a luxury, as most all children are sent to learn and grow up in professions. Some children are luckier than others in the professions they get shoved into. Norah receives the opportunity to learn multiple arts; the art and entertainment duties of a clown, the poise and flair of sorcery, and the gritty and skilled work of an assassin. After Norah is chosen to be the queen's personal knight and champion, her loyalty to the kingdom will be tested. Will she fail her liege and pursue a life of freedom? Or will she defend her oath and commitment to the kingdom? Either option Norah chooses, her life will be forever changed and touched by the royal family.

A magic-addicted spy trapped in the queen's service must track a princess-turned-assassin in order to earn her freedom, but things get complicated when she falls for the princess she's supposed to capture. ***** Weak. Cursed. That's how seventeen-year-old Kayden Branimir, the realm's deadliest assassin, views herself. Some believe she could save the world with her rare healing magic, but she gave up on her powers long ago after failing to save her best friend. Her life changes when she receives a letter from her supposedly dead twin brother, Alaric, begging to be rescued from rival territory Leodia. For the first time since her friend's accident, Kayden is determined to be the hero, but she must learn to embrace her magic--and herself--along the way. Strange. Unnatural. Those are the words whispered about eighteen-year-old Zara Tait, a Leodian spy addicted to soul-stealing magic. Forced into the queen's service, Zara wants to escape and return home, but she has nothing to offer the queen in exchange for her freedom. When Kayden arrives in Leodia, Zara sees the quiet girl with unique magic as the bargaining chip she needs. But the more she learns of Kayden, the more her feelings grow. Now, Zara must choose between her freedom and the dangerous assassin she hadn't meant to fall for.
