Everyone dreams of marrying a prince--except for me. I am nothing more than a pawn in my adoptive mother's diabolical plot against the seven kingdoms.I was the chosen tool, her sharpened blade that would cut the deepest into the heart of the kingdom of Baist. But like all deadly weapons, my wedding is two-edged sword that could cost me my soul.
For I am Rosalie, one of the adopted daughters of Lady Eville, and it is my duty to enter into a loveless and hate-filled marriage with the narcissistic Crown Prince of Baist. My choices and heart are not my own to give. Yet even in the thick of dire situations, beastly vengeance can give way to beautiful attraction.

Customer Reviews
I really liked this book
This book is just lovely. When I don’t know what to read anymore I come back to this book. I’ve read it more than I can count.
Couldn’t put it down!
Such an amazing book! I read it in one sitting!
An exciting beginning to a new series!
A new take on an old favourite. Hahn is the master of creating compelling characters that draw you in immediately have you rooting for them. I’m glad to say this book was no exception.
The book opens Rosalie, eldest of seven adoptive daughters of Lady Eville, being married to Prince Xander of the Baist kingdom. The prince, until just hours before, was betrothed to another woman but after a conversation with Lady Eville, Xander’s father has agreed to him instead marrying Rosalie.
Wedded bliss does not soon follow. Immediately after the ceremony Xander banishes Rosalie to her room, telling her he never wants to see her face. Too used to being the pariah, Rosalie decides to use her magic to allow herself some freedom around the castle. She ends up developing a dual identity, being both Rosalie, forced to remain hidden under a veil and unwanted wife, as well as Rose the servant/lady who’s sharp tongue and beauty attracts the attention of the hunter guard Gaven and her own unwitting husband Xander.
However there are more frightening issues at hand as the kingdom of Baist has a beast roaming through it, killing anyone foolish enough to wander at night. Add to that the neighbouring kingdom of Florin is still out for blood 18 years after its queen and young princess were killed travelling through Baist. Can Rosalie help her new kingdom and convince her new husband that she is more than just a witch and daughter of Eville or is she destined to remain the villain of her own story?
