A rebellious princess determined to chart her own destiny. A prince determined to ignore court polities. And a daring journey that will lead them to more than just adventure.

Princess Rosamund is trapped within the confines of her royal life. Cursed by a dark faery to prick her finger on a thorn before the sun sets on her eighteenth birthday, her father takes no chances and keeps her close. Bored with her courtly duties, she yearns for adventure. When her father announces her betrothal to Prince Phillip as a means to secure an alliance, Rosamunds rebellious spirit ignites. Determined to chart her own destiny, she defies her father and slips out of the castle late one night to embark on a journey into the unknown.

A prince by birthright, Phillips heart and soul are far removed from the intricacies of court politics, preferring the thrill of hunting and the warmth of ale in the company of commoners. When his father decrees its time for him to embrace his duties and secure the kingdoms future through marriage to Princess Rosamund, he shirks those responsibilities and steals away into the night.
