Beschreibung des Verlags
Rhianne, mind mage and Imperial Princess of Kjall, cannot openly challenge the emperor. Instead she acts in secret to aid the victims of his worst excesses. But now the emperor plans to wed her to the cruel Augustan, the man leading Kjall’s attack against the nation of Mosar. Soon she will be torn from her supporters and shipped overseas, where she can help no one.
Mosari crown prince Janto is desperate to save his country from invasion. When one of his most trusted spies disappears while gathering intelligence at the Kjallan palace, Janto takes his place and continues searching for information that could save his people. But falling for the Imperial Princess was not part of his plan. Nor was having his true identity revealed...
Now Rhianne must make a choice—follow the path of tradition or the one of the heart, even if it means betraying her own race.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In the busy companion and prequel to Assassin's Gambit, Raby manages to pack romance, intrigue, and an entire war into a very small space. Rhianne, mage and princess of Kjall, dreads her upcoming marriage to the deplorable army commander Augustan, intended as a political move and punishment for her willful ways. Janto, a prince of the besieged Mosari, has infiltrated the Kjallan palace to obtain intelligence. He meets Rhianne while he's posing as a slave; despite the false pretenses, the chemistry is real and the attraction undeniable. Their swiftly deepening relationship is put to the test when the war reaches its culmination. While Rhianne will do anything to escape her marriage to Augustan, Janto will risk everything to save his homeland. Raby weaves a convincing, captivating, sometimes steamy story, not incidentally finding some creative uses for Janto's invisibility-related magic and Rhianne's talents of the mind.
