A healer on the run. A rogue knight bound by secrets. Love was never part of the plan.

At just eighteen, Aliwyn has already failed as a healer's apprentice. Haunted by her mistakes, she withdraws from the world as a rebellion ignites against William the Conqueror.

But when she agrees to hide an endangered orphan, Aliwyn is plunged into the deadly revolt. A daring escape entangles her with the young rebel leader, Tobias, and she is swept into a world of rival factions and secret alliances. Caught in the heart of the insurgents' army, she must decide who to save. Worst of all, Tobias' compassionate nature turns her perceptions of the enemy upside down.

As she unravels the rebels' fiery secret that could destroy England, Aliwyn is challenged to take fate into her own hands. Will she rise to save her kingdom? And can she resist the magnetic charms of the man she's vowed to defeat?
