Sixteen year old Iolanthe Seabourne's life is radically changed when she attempts to repair an elixir gone bad. She is an elemental mage of middling power charged with lighting the path for a friend's wedding. When she summons lightning, she attracts the attention of villainous Inquisitors...and teenage Prince Titus Elberon, the figurehead ruler of The Domain. Titus instigates a plot to secret Iolanthe by disguising her as a boy attending Eton College in 1800's London. In true romantic fantasy fashion, each save the other's life and work to defeat a common foe. Iolanthe is a character inspiring much admiration for her adaptability, her humility, her common sense, and her fearlessness. Titus is a heartthrob hero, who is very lucky to have Ioanthe by his side.
First in a series.
