Gabrielle is a free spirit. Francesca, a shy shadow hiding behind her sister's skirts. As the eldest, Gabrielle did everything in her power to avoid overshadowing Francesca. So when the day came and Francesca whispered she’d fallen in love, Gabrielle gladly agrees to be the one hiding in the shadows until Francesca was wed.


But the King has other plans. Suddenly Gabrielle is betrothed to Francesca’s love and Francesca is betrothed to a heathen Prince from the far north.
Gabrielle decides the only way to save her delicate sister is to create a web of deceit. A web that quickly spins out of control leaving a trail of death in its wake.
