Alanna, still maintaining her disguise as a boy, has become a squire to none other than the heir to the throne. But Prince Jonathan is not only Alanna's liege lord, he is also her best friend — and one of the few who knows the secret of her true identity. When a vicious sorcerer threatens the prince's life, it will take all of Alanna's skill, strength, and magical power to protect him, even at the risk of revealing her secret and surrendering her dream.
