In Diana Kingston's defense, it was the middle of the night in the deserted hospital chapel. Surely it was just a dream.

Then she wakes, and her father is fully recovered, and a mysterious letter arrives from the tall, dark, handsome - um, devil?

I may be a Bratva Princess, but I'm not going to end up as a babymaker for some spoiled Russian heir.Named after the God of War, the Ares Academy doesn’t teach math or literature.

Soon he wants to forge a contract between our families, making me his bride, but he has no idea I’m not whom he thinks I am and when he finds out … well, I know I’m as good as dead.
