Synopsis

Princess Guinevere arrives in Camelot to marry a man she has never met: King Arthur, young, charming and ruling a city that many want to see fall. Merlin has arranged the match. Magic presses at the edges of the kingdom, and Guinevere is sent to be both Arthur's wife and his guard.

She is not who she claims to be. Guinevere is a changeling, and her real name and identity must stay hidden. She has given up everything she had to keep Camelot standing, and her whole existence rests on a lie.

At court, she has to steer between two camps. The old guard, Arthur's own family among them, insist that nothing should change. The newcomers, drawn by the dream of Camelot, push for a better way of life. Outside the walls, magic waits in forests and deep lakes for a chance to take the land back.

This is Arthurian fantasy with a female lead, built on court intrigue, deadly jousts, scheming knights and forbidden romance. Another danger runs beneath them all: a girl with long black hair, riding through dark woods toward Arthur. It is the first book in the Camelot Rising trilogy.
