About this listen
Ionanthe will leave her freedom at the castle doors. The ancient laws of this kingdom demand an eye for an eye - and she must pay the price for her sister’s mistake.
Recently crowned Prince Max plans to bring change to his country, but only after his beautiful new bride has arrived - as payment for the debt he is owed.… A ruthless ruler and a virgin queen. Trembling with the fragility of new spring buds, Ionanthe will go to her husband: she was given as penance, but he’ll take her for pleasure!
