When best friends Claire and Jo wake up trapped in a fantasy romance novel, Claire thinks it's a dream come true while Jo knows it's her worst nightmare - especially after they are almost killed by a monster and end up on the wrong end of a handsome prince's sword.
In order to pass through the mythical world of Larnwick, they must explain away their sudden and strange appearance by claiming to be royalty from another kingdom. Together, they must tackle the new fictional world they've found themselves in, which is currently in the throes of the Autumnal Festival, where tournaments and markets are held daily and elegant seasonal-themed balls are nightly. While Claire finally becomes the heroine of her own story, Jo might just become the villain when she makes a deal with the novel's antagonist to get back home.

She screamed, her eyes widening when she watched her mother, the only family she ever knew, be stabbed through the heart with a sword. The man who did it took the sword out of the mother who lay dead, his evil menacing eyes looking down at the shaking girl as she slowly backed away.
"Vous êtes le prochain." (You're next.)
