Synopsis
You’d think being a princess would be a good thing, but it’s put a target on my back and no one around me is safe. Izzy was the only name I’d ever known my entire life, but I’ve just found out my true name is Isolde (talk about old fashioned) and I’m the lost princess of a magical world. Only the current princess can’t find out, or she’ll probably kill me, she’s insane like that. Also, I’m an elf, well, a half-blood elf, and that’s another mark against me, since elves hate anyone muddying the bloodline. But since I’m the real heir to the throne I have few options. I’ll always be hunted, always on the run, but since running isn’t in my nature I’m going to stay and fight. But first I need to learn about my new elven powers (as well as my nymph powers which I still haven’t fully grasped yet) not to mention the fact that I have no clue how to rule anything. Luckily, I have people to help me. Myel, my beautiful, mate-bonded, Goth, vampire, shifter. I know it’s a mouthful, but it’s all true. He’s as dedicated to me as they come, but he can’t hide away with me or people will get suspicious, which means he has to go back to the constant danger of his job. Vyns, a literal angel who saved my life, after I saved his. Even though he used to serve Saldrea, the other princess, I trust him implicitly. We’re bound in spirit, even if we’re still getting to know each other, but I know he’ll be there for me when I need him. Rook, the sex demon, with whom I have a stilted, off-again, on-again relationship. Right now, we’re off-again, which sucks because being with him is sinfully good. Too bad we have no clue how to be around each other otherwise. Koar, the dragon, who I know so little about. Can I trust him? No clue, but he’s doing this darndest to convince me he’s loyal. And a few others who come out of the woodwork as followers of the true crown, which turns out to be me. But can our little band of outcasts stand up to the might of the elven empire? I have to be honest, our chances don’t look good. Secrecy is our best weapon, but that won’t last for long. And once the truth is out… everything will change.
