Arianna returns to help Nicholas defend his kingdom against the war that was hinted at in the first book. Her destiny is that of a protector and she must help to defend the land and the people that live here. Her trusty blades are ready and her skills are honed to keep the people she loves safe from harm. Peter has grown up and is the leader of the army that will lead Nicholas's people to victory, and Arianna is right there beside him every step of the way. Nicholas's best friend, Zachary, is right there as well to keep people protected and to help Arianna in any way that he can. It will be a battle to defend the land they all love and keep themselves alive. Arianna needs to control the rage that has been building since Jake died and maybe even begin to heal a bit, if she doesn't push herself too far again.
