With no memory and no one stepping up to claim her, she became a ward of the state, moving from foster home to foster home, until finding a home at the all-girls’ boarding high school, New Ridge, at the age of fourteen. A week before her nineteenth birthday, Alaina is ready to put the past behind her, and start living in the present. But her past is not done with her yet. When the mysterious and oh-so-sexy Brady shows up looking for her, claiming she is the long-lost princess from the realm Nysa, the princess prophesied to save their kingdom from the evil tyrant Lord Wright, she is thrown into a world she could never have imagined to exist. On the verge of being crowned queen, Alaina must decide whom and what to believe. Everyone around her assures her that she is, in fact, the heir to the throne and the one whom the prophecy is named after, even when everything inside of her screams that something is not right. But without her childhood memories, there is no way to be certain. Not only is Alaina struggling with the truth about her past, she is being hunted by Lord Wright's most ruthless solider, Kakos, who will do anything to stop the prophecy from being fulfilled. With her life in danger and the fate of Nysa hanging in the balance, can Alaina come to terms with her past? And if so, will she survive long enough to see what the Gods have in store for her future?
