Deception. Betrayal. Secrets.
All Isla ever wanted was to marry the Captain of the Royal Guard, help the town healer, and see her papa healthy again. When betrayal strikes, shaking the foundation Isla stands on, she has to determine what's fact or fiction.
Isla was supposed to be the Captain's beloved. Now she's his enemy's prisoner.
Rhylen never asked to be the leader of the rebellion, but when the tyrannical rule takes root in the kingdom he loves, he's determined to help put a stop to it. Hitting the royal coffers and terrorizing the Crown Prince, Rhylen stirs trouble throughout the kingdom.
Taken by the man she should hate, Isla is forced to confront a world she's been sheltered from. Every step she takes beside him, blurs the line between enemy and ally, between loyalty and treason.
When the masks come off, Isla must decide who she'll fight for... and who she'll burn for.
