Princess Amarande's life is turned upside down when her father dies unexpectedly. The doctor and high council call it a heart attack, but she thinks her father was poisoned. The council only wants to marry her off so they can have a king because thanks to ancient laws a queen cannot rule on her own. When her beloved stableboy is kidnapped to force her hand, she refuses to submit. Her father raised a warrior as well as a princess and she is determined to save her love, find her father's murderer, and take over the kingdom on her terms.
This book was inspired by the Princess Bride, but only in the loosest sense. Henning creates her own rich world and Amarande's journey to save her prince is different from the Dread Pirate Roberts, although no less thrilling. The adventure here centers of a desert kingdom full of deadly creatures, dangerous people, and hidden mysteries. It also differs in that it's a series opener and not a stand-alone, so brace yourself for a cliff-hanger. A winner for fans of fantasy, romance, and adventure.
