内容简介：
Lyssa is invited by her uncle, King Montague, to attend a celebration at Castle Mulhagenny. Soon after her arrival, Lyssa is given an unusual and exquisite necklace to wear, not knowing that it is the means by which her family will betray her. At the celebration, Lyssa meets King Dairius. Her uncle owes Dairius a huge debt, and Lyssa is to be the payment for that debt. She finds herself on a journey to Annatista where she is to become the reluctant bride of King Dairius. Lyssa soon learns that the necklace she wears has the power to grant its owner good fortune and great happiness, and that the necklace has chosen her for this particular honor. She soon comes to view the necklace as a curse rather than a blessing as she is plunged headfirst into danger and an adventure not of her choosing.
