After Princess River is deposed in the line of succession, she resolves to master her magic at any cost to retake her crown and restore peace to her war-torn land. Her sister, Iris, however, thirsts to avenge the slaughter of her kingdom, even if it means forgoing peace. Ky, heir to the Spitarian throne, struggles to balance running his kingdom while keeping both his father's imprisonment and his increasing feelings for River a secret. He knows River must chase her own dreams, so he keeps the prophecy of their pregnancy and her death hidden. Once the kingdom's children go missing, River and Iris must put aside their differences. While River and Ky attempt to secure alliances with the Spitarian people, Iris searches for leads on the taken innocents, and then she too disappears without a trace. River, Ky, and their allies must rescue both the missing children and Iris before it is too late. River has already lost her crown. She will not lose her sister, too—even if it means losing a part of herself along the way.

Derik discovers that his usual good looks and charm won't help him hold onto the girl he wants, while nineteen-year-old drifter, Mearl, is desperately looking for a place to call home.
