Synopsis

Avian Skye has a choice to make: keep his title as Sky Prince and continue to uphold the tradition of his family and follow the expectations of his kingdom … or … take the road less traveled, trade in his wings, and forge a completely new life and identity for himself. Neither option is without risk. Both require a level of sacrifice. But only one honors the quiet voice inside. Choices have consequences. Actions have ripples. And somewhere in the in-between, character is formed and lives are shaped. And it begs the question: how much impact can one life truly have on another?
