but with the arrival of a mysterious princess from another land,
the fate of the king and of the realm may be up to her alone.
With Teman’s holy refuge of Mount Avalee destroyed, the orphan girl Bethany must find a new place to live. She stays with her friend Anna Corden in the palace of Teman and finds that she is in love with the king of Teman himself. Things seem to be going well for her until the arrival of a mysterious princess from the realm of Petros, whose people are descendants of Temanites.
Realizing that she is unworthy of the king’s love, and having been humiliated by the Petrosian princess, Bethany leaves the palace and spends the winter with Princess Mariya in Rygia, where she learns what it means to be a princess on the inside—in the heart.
When Bethany returns to Teman, she finds that the king’s relationship with the Petrosian princess has blossomed, but the princess may not be all she appears to be. Bethany uncovers a plot to destroy the king and finds she is the only one in a position to save him.
In a subplot to this story, Justus Corden discovers that his future son-in-law might have something to do with the murder of his mentor, General Rolland Longsword.
