Jude has been living in the High Court of Faerie since she was stolen from the mortal world at the age of seven. Madoc, general to the faerie king and her father in the faerie world, murdered her mother and father. He brought Jude to Faerie along with her twin sister Taryn and her half-sister, Vivi. Jude struggles to fit in the faerie world as a mortal.  She is under the protection of Madoc but mortals are often despised by the folk.  Jude has caught the eye of Prince Cardan, the youngest child of the king and a classmate of Jude’s.  Known as the Cruel Prince, Cardan and his group of fairy friends do everything thing they can to make Jude’s life miserable. Jude isn’t one to back down. Jude has hopes of becoming a knight, but she will need Madoc’s blessing to do so.
