Her future as both the wife of a local prince and medicine woman of her village seems predetermined until she meets Fedell and falls in love. Their forbidden relationship is torn apart when she is kidnapped by Egyptians and dragged halfway across the continent to be forced into a loveless marriage with the reluctant Prince Mohammed. As she transforms into the Queen of Egypt, Aaliyah is torn between embracing her new life and longing for her home and family. When Fedell reappears as an enemy of the state, she will have to decide her own fate—and his—once and for all. This exciting, historical novel about passion, destiny and sacrifice captures the essence of a bygone era.
