The perfect princess. That’s what I am. During the day, at least. At night, I’m Starlight: spy on the streets of Ketim.
Then Father upends everything by betrothing me to Navid, the quiet archivist with a talent for disaster whenever I’m near. With Navid’s ability to notice what others miss, will he guess my secrets?
As the days pass leading to our wedding, I find myself falling in ways I can’t allow. The thought of letting this stranger inside is terrifying—of letting him know who I truly am beneath the masks I wear. But he seems determined to tear away my walls until there’s nothing left to hide behind.
Will I survive this man who somehow knows me better than I know myself? Will Starlight survive?
To complicate everything, a competing spy keeps getting in my way whenever I leave my life at the palace to venture onto the streets at night. Who is this shadow, anyway? And why can’t I get him out of my head?
