In a world suppressed by the government, a group of bandits known as the Red Raiders play an almost Robin Hood-ish role to help support the citizens of the country, Ethria.
One of the famously known warriors of the Red Raiders, Reece, is not who he appears, or should we say, she appears. In a group full of male bandits, Reece thought it was only plausible to disguise herself as a male as well in order to be treated completely fair. So from the time she joined the Red Raiders, the only ones who knew her secret of her true gender were her whole hearted and trusted comrades. But for how long would this last?
Time itself decides when on one of the many raids of the nobles that live in the Suntima Valley, to save her best friend Micah, Reece has turned herself into the government in his place ready for whatever consequences that may occur. What she does not expect is being sent out on a mission to bring the missing Imperial Stamp that was stolen by their neighboring country of Daphidry’s king along with a teenage boy named Beckett Woods serving as his guard.
Will Reece be able to steal back the stamp to give to an undeserving king to achieve her freedom or will love possibly change the future she thought she was destined to have? READ ON TO FIND OUT!
