About
Princess Contessa of Costenopolie—known as Tess—has spent her entire life believing she is the kingdom's true princess, carefully trained in diplomacy, politics, self-defense, and everything else required of a future ruler. Her world is shattered when the arrival of her intended husband, a prince from Misdev, forces her parents to reveal the truth: Tess was actually an orphan taken from the streets and raised as a decoy to protect their real daughter from assassins.
Despite discovering that she has no royal blood, Tess remains a target as Misdev soldiers occupy the palace and threaten the kingdom. She must escape their control, learn to use magical abilities she never knew she possessed, help restore the true princess to her rightful position, and stay alive in the process. Complicating her plans are a mysterious scoundrel encouraging her to abandon everything and a determined Misdev captain intent on stopping her.
Blending fantasy, romance, magic, political intrigue, adventure, and royal deception, the first Princess novel follows Tess as she discovers that courage and leadership may have far less to do with birthright than she once believed.
