For five centuries, a witch's curse has bound the trolls to their city
beneath the ruins of Forsaken Mountain. Time enough for their dark and
nefarious magic to fade from human memory and into myth. But a prophesy
has been spoken of a union with the power to set the trolls free, and
when Ccile de Troyes is kidnapped and taken beneath the mountain, she
learns there is far more to the myth of the trolls than she could have
imagined.
Ccile has only one thing on her mind after she is brought to Trollus:
escape. Only the trolls are clever, fast, and inhumanly strong. She will
have to bide her time, wait for the perfect opportunity. But something
unexpected happens while she's waiting--she begins to fall for the
enigmatic troll prince to whom she has been bonded and married. She
begins to make friends. And she begins to see that she may be the only
hope for the half-bloods--part troll, part human creatures who are
slaves to the full-blooded trolls. There is a rebellion brewing. And her
prince, Tristan, the future king, is its secret leader.
As Ccile becomes involved in the intricate political games of Trollus,
she becomes more than a farmer's daughter. She becomes a princess, the
hope of a people, and a witch with magic powerful enough to change
Trollus forever.
