As the princess of Volentia, Cat always knew certain things about who she was and what was expected of her, but when shadow assassins start infiltrating the palace, targeting her, everything about Cat's carefully constructed world comes crumbling down around her. The people she loves most are keeping secrets from her. The biggest of them all is who she really is. Magic has been extinct for hundreds of years. Thomas knows this to be true. Or, he thought it was true until one night he is thrown from his horse while escaping an arranged marriage. He starts having visions of a girl and a danger lurking in the shadows. He knows she needs his help, but first he needs help finding her. Help that comes from an unlikely source. Perhaps the world is more magical than he ever believed was possible.
