With Princess Alassa's wedding to Jade fast approaching, Emily returns to Zangaria to play her part in the wedding ceremony and say goodbye to her friends as they leave Whitehall School. But with a demon's warning echoing in her ears, King Randor dangerously unstable and meddling in her relationship with her boyfriend, junior aristocrats scrambling for power, society dames demanding bigger roles in the ceremony, social unrest in Zangaria reaching its peak and her own magic no longer reliable, the wedding ceremony will be anything but relaxing. As Emily is drawn into a maelstrom of political turmoil, no longer certain who she can trust, one thing is certain. Alassa's wedding may turn into hell. And when an old enemy returns, Emily may find herself confronting a choice between doing the right thing... ...And losing everything she's built over the past four years.
