Book excerpt: Reille Arsen DeRovio Akelli used to be the Second Prince of Astye. After his recent banishment, Rei turned to petty crime to survive, getting involved with a gang of thieves. However, once the gang discovers he's an ex-prince with a bounty on his head, they turn on him, planning to trade him for the reward money.Waldon Max is a simple florist, a widower, and a single father. One day, Rei suddenly breaks into his shop, claiming to have escaped a gang chasing him. Haunted by his dark past, Waldon initially tries to attack the intruder, only to realize his mistake and apologize. He offers Rei shelter from the gang in exchange for helping around the shop after his young daughter takes a liking to Rei. Despite being nervous that his royal origins and the bounty on his head will catch up to him again, Rei accepts.However, as Rei and Waldon fall into a comfortable routine managing the flower shop, Rei's secret past isn't the only thing keeping a wall between them; there's a mysterious shadow following them around town, and Waldon isn't surprised by it. Fearing for their safety, Rei demands answers, but the florist ends up giving him a request instead: asking for help in taking down this mysterious figure.
