My family, the Whitlows, are basically the supernatural Corleones of the Carolinas. We run a magical safe house disguised as a quaint inn, backed by more old money than sense. My sisters are more likely to start an apocalypse than prevent one—Alafair's never met a margarita she didn't like, and if Emmery had to choose between her spellbook and her heels, I'm pretty sure the stiletto sling-backs would win. So who gets stuck with the messes? That would be me, Tula Whitlow, because I'm competent enough to be useful and way too lazy to argue.

He’s a hero in our small town, and the gentle way he cares for his young daughter will melt your… everything.

Once upon a time, a wondrous Kingdom flourished under the reign of its proud Fae king and his family. All was not as it seemed when poisonous schemes and utter betrayal led to the downfall of an empire. Sixteen years have since passed, the lands now lay in ruin, and crime prevails despite the will of the Council. Their mission becomes clear: produce an heir and unite the Kingdom to restore its former glory.

It crowned me a princess, then ripped it away overnight. It gave me the determination to restore my family name, despite the hatred of my kind throughout the kingdom. It gave me the courage to walk through the gates of Heir Academy and fight for what's mine. But the funny thing about fate is, that no matter how much I want to take the reins, it has its own plan for me. This journey has led me through trials and up against enemies I could have never foreseen. Despite all this lies a glimmer of hope in four men I never saw coming.
