Description

Maia rules Avalogne Academy. Connor rules the kingdom.

Both worlds are in trouble when the power-hungry Talnorian Court discovers an ancient law forcing the prince to choose a bride.

At school, Connor keeps to himself, and that’s the way he likes it. He implemented strict policies to eliminate unnecessary conversation. But now he must speak to every noble girl in the kingdom or risk losing his crown.

To make matters worse, the students think Maia is his matchmaker, but Connor wants her expelled.

Maia shouldn’t be at this school. It’s for the children of the nobles, not poor foster kids. But she has something dangerous and powerful. Something that has made her life easy. Favor. The Spirit of her Ancestors gave her incredible magic that compels everyone to love her. Everyone, that is, except Prince Connor. He is annoyingly immune to her charm, and for the first time in her life, magic can’t help her.

Connor’s nobility and pride mix with Maia’s spunk to uncover a plot that threatens not only the empire but could reveal Maia’s hidden secret.
