In the kingdom of Marsden, women were subject to men and land could only be passed from father to son. So when Reid Ellington, the fifth daughter of one of the richest landowners in the kingdom, was born, it was announced that Reid was a boy.

Eighteen years later, Reid struggles to hide the fact that she is actually a young woman. Every day, her secret becomes harder to keep. When one of Marsden’s princes sees her fencing, she is forced to accept his offer and lead her father’s soldiers to the border. Along the way, she discovers a secret organization in the military known as the Knights of the Kingdom.

If Reid wants to save her family from being arrested for treason and robbed of her inheritance, she will have to join the knights and become the weapon for the crown.

To protect his family, Reid must fight like a man. To do that, she will need the courage of a woman.

This is the first book in a new series of fantasy stories from bestselling author Jennifer Anne Davis.

After listening to this Series, I’m glad to hear that Jennifer Anne Davis has more books. She is an extremely talented author. I have listened to all of her books and thoroughly enjoyed all of them. I was playing The First Book in the Secret Dynasty series, my daughter started listening and was hooked within minutes. She finished the entire series before me. I recommend all her books.

This book has an atmospheric and mysterious plot. Lord Reid wait, Lady is the perfect blend of innocence and braun. Growing up as a man, she lived a lie. When her king and his brothers call her to work for them, secrets begin to be revealed. I feel as if this plot is realistic. There was some action but nothing that made her skill level unrealistic. I can’t wait to read the next book.
