Falling short in college might not be the worst thing that could happen, right? Actually, imagine being captured by a disarmingly handsome stranger from another realm, who believes he's destined to become an emperor and enlists your help to gain popularity. That's exactly where Alexis finds herself now, trapped in a magical world under the control of a charismatic yet somewhat weak ruler. Meet Alastair, a half-blood king, falsely accused by his own family of murdering his 18 siblings. They seek to have him executed, but his only lifeline is a feisty woman from a different world – someone he's inexplicably drawn to.
Where does this unexpected journey take them? Will their story end in heart-wrenching romance, or will both their lives end tragically? "You're mine until this year comes to an end," declares Alastair, binding their fates together.
