Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of Philander, a rightful heir to the throne who is unjustly cast aside by the King, who instead seeks to secure his power through a marriage between his daughter Araminta and a foreign Prince. The plot thickens when Philander's loyalty is tested by the Prince, while Araminta, faced with a loveless union, finds her affections drawn to Philander.
