Two women, practically identical in appearance, concoct a plan to switch places during the day. The Sun Court Prince falls in love with the wrong woman.

Woman by day and dragon by night, Iskra is cursed to be destined to die during the Undertaking but the Sun Court minister. However, Lady Esi—betrothed to Prince Jasyn—offers Iskra one last chance at freedom, and Iskra grasps the opportunity with both hands. 

Prince Jasyn, grieving the loss of his two siblings, struggles to feel worthy at the possibility of becoming king. While others in the court have the power of flame, he bursts with the power of sunlight.

With Iskra’s help, Jasyn learns he’s qualified to rule as long as he stays true to his heart. Yet, as the two begin to fall in love, Jasyn is oblivious to Iskra’s true identity. When the truth comes out, will Jasyn be able to forgive Iskra for her lying, or will he put his court first and kill her during the Undertaking?
