Their nation has lived under a realm of peace for almost a hundred years, but now all of that has changed. Prince Gabriel, soon to be the next ruler, is faced with an unknown enemy intent on stealing his throne, and bringing chaos to his kingdom. As he goes up against the threat of war, Gabriel begins to see that there is a greater battle he must fight than the one his nation faces...a battle for his heart. In this, he is tested to find his true strength in overcoming the peril of his pride before he loses everything. Katya Nuremburg has her own demons to face as she returns to the land of her departed mother, so when she too becomes caught up in the turmoil that is shaking the nation, she quickly learns an important truth: only her faith will keep her standing firm.
