Rival Kingdoms. Forbidden Love. Ancient Magic.

Sparks fly when Prince Zayd, fresh from defending the borders of Dakaria meets Princess Layla of Sawan, determined to run away from her cruel, power-hungry mother. But the young royals must marry to build alliances, not for love. As Layla and Zayd struggle between their hearts and their duties, a centuries-old prophecy is set into motion, calling upon a magical saviour to bring the mages out of exile.

When Layla discovers she has latent powers, ones she begins to fear and must keep hidden, and Zayd begins to secretly negotiate with the mages, the young royals' paths become irreversibly intertwined.

But the kingdoms are divided, still suffering from the fallout of colonial rule, and peace between them is fragile. Could Layla be the key to finally uniting the lands, or will forbidden love plunge the lands into a devasting war?
