Ripped from her dorm room, Beckah Conrad finds herself pitched into an ancient world. When she accidentally rescues Princess Hadassah Hal-Titus from assassin shades, Beckah is tasked with returning the princess to her brother, the deposed heir to the throne of conquered North Arden.

Beckah fights her attraction to the stubborn prince as they continue their journey toward safety. Even when it is revealed that Beckah is the foretold prophetess, Prince Seth Hal-Titus seems determined to see her as nothing but an outsider. But as her prophetic abilities help them survive shades, and Duramonti conquerors, the prince finds himself feeling a begrudging sense of trust, accompanied by an unsettling attraction. How can this girl from another world possibly help him reclaim his kingdom and his throne?

With Beckah at his side, Prince Seth Hal-Titus is making progress in reclaiming his stolen kingdom of North Arden for the first time in over a decade. However, just when he embraces his role as Hand of Adonai and his growing strength, a surprise announcement from the Council of Elders threatens to disrupt all that Seth has gained, including his relationship with Beckah. Every choice Seth now makes will determine his happiness and the future of his kingdom.

Beckah Conrad fully embraced her role as Arden’s prophetess but not her relationship with Seth. Fearing a marriage would only hinder his reign as king, Beckah walks a fine line between supporting a monarch and being in love with him. But when a pair of prophets arrive, demanding she join them and leave Seth, Beckah must finally decide what kind of prophetess she will be and what it means for her feelings for Seth. Meanwhile, the key to a growing threat in the North is locked in her memory, and she must unravel the mystery before it is too late.

Alliances will be forged. Choices will be made. And the future of North and South Arden will be decided.
