Summary:Keep your enemies closer. Cade McKenna is a transgender prince who doubles for his brother Patrick, current ruler of Adare. Valencia Palafox is a young dama to the princess of Eliana, and also an infamous boy assassin known as Gael. Valencia has made Patrick her newest target, not knowing that the first time she meets him, she's really meeting Cade. Cade has placed Gael under his protection, not knowing that Gael has fatal plans for the Adare prince. And when Cade and Valencia blame each other for an enchantment that takes both their families, neither of them realizes that they have far more dangerous enemies -- and working together starts to draw them closer, something they never imagined was possible.
