But when the king orders her to predict Cyrus´s love story for an upcoming ball, Violet accidentally awakens a dreaded curse that could ruin them all. Her wits may protect her in the cutthroat court, but they can´t change her fate - nor the doomed attraction growing between her and the prince . . .
