Prevent a war. Choose a queen. Destroy a monster. After Volturia was nearly destroyed by a civil war, her king swore to suppress any hint of rebellion. Thus, two years ago, the Crown Heir was sent north to stop an uprising. Although it seemed to have been successful, Wynn Durante’s mission had disastrous personal consequences.
Haunted by the decisions he made, he strives in secret to fix his mistakes. And with his coronation drawing near, Wynn must choose his queen during the a season where the nobles gather to flirt and forge new alliances through marriage.
But the Matching is interrupted by the arrival of the commoners who have taken it upon themselves to expose the crimes of nobles—and to dispense their own brand of justice.
When nobles are murdered and a siege begins, Wynn must do everything he can to mitigate the Liberated’s fury and foster peace between them. A war is brewing, and if he can’t stop it, Volturia faces the possibility of being torn apart—again.
