Daphne Hawthorne never asked to be a pawn in court politics. The spirited daughter of a powerful duke, she longs for freedom and love beyond palace walls. But at a glittering ball, her life changes when her cousin’s threats, a mysterious death, and the unwanted attention of Crown Prince Lucien Valero pull her into the kingdom’s most dangerous intrigues. As jealous rivals scheme, old grudges resurface, and sinister plots circle her family, Daphne must learn to outwit those who would ruin her. Torn between her own independence and Lucien’s relentless pursuit, she discovers that survival in the court requires more than courage—it demands sacrifice, cunning, and a strength she never knew she possessed.
