Book overview
The thief, the noblewoman, and the secrets they hide.
Maerryl Kirim, a surly half-dwarf with the world on her shoulders, will do anything to save her deathly ill brother. Joining a guild of thieves to gather enough coin for his cure, she agrees to infiltrate a noble family. But acting as bodyguard for their haughty, spoiled daughter is no walk in the enchanted forest.
Dove Wistrallo yearns for independence, not a babysitter. As the uncouth Maerryl loves to remind her, she lives a charmed life... though few know of the risky magical ability that Dove hides. Spending every moment together is infuriating--at first. But before long, the friction between the rogue and the lady becomes a spark they can't ignore. Yet the clock is ticking for Maerryl to secure the family's riches. Does their growing love stand a chance against Maerryl's ruse, Dove's secrets, and a den of thieves?
