For the past eighteen years, Myla Rosewell has lived in the castle. Both of her parents died and the king agreed to take her in when she was young. All her life she has grown up next to the heir to the throne, Prince Beau Whitewalker. Every night she sneaks out of the castle with Beau to train how to fight, for the king won't allow her to. When the king learns about this behavior, he banishes Myla from the kingdom. She leaves willingly and finds a place where she is more welcome than she imagined. Myla soon finds herself wrapped up in the middle of a plan to kill the Whitewalker family, including the boy she loves.
