Sometimes walking in someone else's shoes is instructive. Other times it can destroy your entire life! Elena and Brooke are from opposite worlds.  Elena is an e'Silea darling. She spent her life pampered by her mother's slaves. She was taught about her position in the True and Natural Order and raised to become a fighter for her country. Brooke is the daughter of a noblewoman in the service of the king. She has been raised to marry a wealthy nobleman and take her rightful place among the gentry. When their mothers are called as Ambassadors in the opposite nations, the two girls are transplanted into each other's worlds. They begin to see the dark realities hidden inside their own privileged lives. But when the consequences of facing truth begins to strain relationships and even break laws, both Elena and Brooke must decide how far they are willing to go to fight for their new beliefs. And if they are willing to destroy their own nation to bring dangerous changes. Darkness only exists until someone lights a fire.
