Crown Prince Serron of Monce had dreaded getting the ultimatum he knew was coming. He'd loved Patin, Duke of Folkon for twelve long years, but to his parents, that wasn't good enough. Forced to consider marrying someone else, Serron is pleased and intrigued when his mother suggests another prince as a possible consort, someone who might be amenable to a marriage contract despite Serron's relationship with Patin. All he had to do was be honest.

"Sometimes I feel as though I am walking on a fine wire, yards in the air, praying I don’t fall and take Serron with me."

Patin, Duke of Folkon had been raised on the streets. Catching Serron's attention hadn't been intentional, but as the years passed and their affection for each other grew, albeit behind closed doors, he always knew the day would come when he would have to leave... or did he?

There's another prince with eyes on Jaq, and with tensions rising at the Monce castle, the early days of the arranged marriage don't go as planned. After an abduction attempt, truths are revealed — will the three men lose their potential for more together, before they even begin?
