A servant protecting her sister, a prince desperate to wed, and a reluctant union to save their kingdom.
For three long years after losing her home in the Crylmar attacks, twenty-two-year-old Annette Beaumont has worked hard to keep her family together. But when her papa's debt to the crown is called into question, and she and her sister are sent to serve at the castle until it's paid, she's drawn into a plot that threatens everything she's worked for.
Shunned and hated, Prince Laurent Villeneuve is running out of time to find a bride before he forfeits his right to the throne. But to stop his treacherous uncle from seizing power and aligning with the enemy, he must overcome his kingdom's hatred, and somehow win the affections of the stubborn servant who becomes his last chance.
As tensions rise and threats loom, both must learn to work together, softening their hearts and setting aside their differences. When time runs out, what will they sacrifice to save their kingdom from ruin? And what if that sacrifice changes everything?
