About the BookA hidden island. A prince in disguise…and a lady torn between love and duty. Lady Tayte Bashan never desired the distinctive black hair that marks her as Undae royalty, but when her family perishes in a devastating tsunami, the burden of leadership falls upon her young shoulders. Even as she prepares her island for the prophesied prince, she fears the duty to marry him is truly meant for another. Dispatched by the King to an island untouched by the outside world for centuries, Prince Geoffrey Athan D’Ambrose must lead its people to the ultimate truth. But how is he supposed to win the heart of Undae’s princess when the King sends him disguised as a tutor? Betrayal stirs within Castle Bashan, a threat as deadly as the rising wave. Now Tayte and Athan must brave the maelstrom or watch as the entire island succumbs to treachery’s destructive tide.

As a little girl, I definitely wanted to be a princess and marry a prince. I was in love with the movie Princess Bride, and that's what I envisioned medieval times to be like. But, now as an adult who knows what medieval times were actually like...NO, I don't want anything to do with medieval times. I like indoor plumbing and central heating too much! Lol!
