Summary
Neighboring kingdoms, both in need of a treaty to help themselves: one needs the resources the other can provide, the other needs the strength and protection the other boasts. They each have an eligible heir: the resourceful kingdom’s second son, the golden boy who doesn’t have to worry about taking the throne as his intelligent older brother has it handled, and his twin is off leading the navy while he himself is in charge of the guard. The strong kingdom’s first born, heir to his throne, wary but kind, able to see dangers that his fathers might overlook, who relies on the kindness and guidance of his two advisors: a bright, friendly man with a penchant for baking, and a cunning, resourceful person who suggested the arrangement in the first place. The two princes agree to the arrangement, knowing it will help their kingdoms, even if they don’t know if they will even get along. When they meet, it seems like their marriage will just be one out of need and convenience, but as their worlds begin to come together as one kingdom is put into danger, the two find that they may not be only what their kingdoms need, but what each other needs.
