When a recently freed Truth wins the nation's lottery and ends up being betrothed to the heir apparent, all bets are off. She is instantly elevated from the status of a former slave to the future Queen of the Bay.
The raffle was supposed to be a life altering prize, but no one warned her it would be like this.
She is forced to walk a razor's edge to keep both the people and her future in-laws at bay. Both want her head and there is no going back. To refuse the betrothal would be an even graver offense.
