You’ve all heard the story of Rapunzel, right? Fall in love, defeat the bad guy, and live happily ever after. The end. But what if that’s not where it ends. What happens when the hero's kid turns into a criminal? Well, that’s the story of Jo’s life. And no, Jo is not a dude. Josephina is a bit too girly for her. Considering that she is a ruthless assassin and all. She’s been locked up in a tower for a majority of her life. Her own mother's tower. And she intends to get out. Although when she finally did, Jo never thought that would have been her big escape. After looking in the mirror in disgust at the resemblance to holds to her mother, she quickly finds a dagger and cuts off her long golden locks of hair. Within seconds she witnesses her golden locks turn to raven black. When a warlock walked into her tower, she attacks and kills him, which results in her eyes turning a glowing, vibrant shade of gold. The dagger that she cut her hair off with and threw at the warlock didn’t end up in his heart, but in the curtain, causing her powers to open up a portal. After she fell into the portal, she fell into a camp of trained assassins who took Jo under their wing. She gets paid to assassinate any person that her clients wished. When she gets paid an extreme amount of money to assassinate the King married to Cinderella, she accepts the job. Jo has to go undercover in the castle and learn the hardships of love, life, secrets, and magic .

Cole Glassad couldn't care less about the upcoming palace ball meant to find a wife for the prince. Her life is down in the dangerous Sparkstone mines, slaving away for a few coins that her stepmother and stepsister promptly steal. With life a living hell, she has barely enough energy to care for the injured animals she tends in secret, much less a party for the royal family that cares so little for her and the people like her. It isn't until a mysterious man appears out of the shadows, claiming to be one of the long-lost faeries and offering her a chance at freedom, that she begins to see hope. In exchange for enough money to free herself from her family, the faerie asks only for one thing in return-- that Cole attends the ball in order to get close enough to the prince to assassinate him and bring an end to the corrupted royal line. With her mission clear, Cole enters the world of the palace to learn about the prince and find a way into his ball. But dark secrets, violent plots, a strange sense that perhaps the prince isn't as bad as the faerie makes him seem, and a life-changing discovery about her past, all conspire to make Cole's shot at freedom messy and difficult. She must find the strength to get close to the prince, or else the mysterious faerie will send her back to the mines and her dreadful family. Once the clock strikes midnight... she must fulfill her end of the bargain. Once the clock strikes midnight... her hands must be red with the prince's blood.
