Synopsis
Lady Elianna, devoted to her books above all else, catches sight of her promised husband Prince Christopher with another noblewoman in his arms. The gossip circulating through court suddenly feels less like idle chatter and more like confirmed fact. He has found his true affection elsewhere, and their arrangement will soon dissolve— a relief she hadn't expected to feel.
But what she's witnessed is only the smallest disturbance on the water. Beneath the surface, currents run far darker than she could have guessed, tangled in schemes that reach beyond what she's prepared to uncover.
