Description
"Meliara and her brother promised their dying father to free Renalna from a bad king's oppressive rule and to preserve the vital Covenant with Renalna's aloof, inhuman Hill People. Meliara, the stubborn barefoot countess, is determined to win or die fighting. But she not only has the evil king to contend with, there's the elegant Marquis of Shevraeth, who alway seems to be one step ahead... Brought to court by a mysterious letter, young Countess Meliara finds herself the subject of courtly intrigue, both sinister and romantic, on the part of the deposed king's sister, the enigmatic Marquis of Shevraeth, and a secret suitor. Meliara has to contend with the mysteries of politics and the mysteries of romance. Is risking your life less dangerous than risking your heart? This special edition has been completely re-edited, with the addition of inserted outtake scenes at the end."Provided by publisher.
