Going on a quest with a handsome prince might sound like a dream, but Prince Rupert's cousin Carole comes to feel it isn't all it's cracked up to be. Carole agrees to accompany her hunky cousin to Miragenia to christen his baby niece. But, it is really hard to even explain the situation to anyone; how the little Princess was stolen from her mother's side by Miragenians, who demanded fifteen years of the first-born's life in exchange for a bit of help during wartime. Or how the baby was taken before magical christening gifts could be bestowed upon her for her protection and character development.*The ladies surrounding Rupert (also known as Rowan the Romantic and Rowan the Rake) don't care about some baby and don't hear anything about the mission because they're too busy sighing over him. Crowd control is an obvious problem, as is extricating Rupert from more than one involuntary engagement. When at last the two, with the help of dubious questing companions including a love-stricken pin...… (more)

Book description
Life in the enchanted land of Argonia is never simple. A score of years ago, Princess Bronwyn and her gypsy lover, Jack, rashly promised their firstborn to the wizards of Miragenia as repayment for their aid.

Now the debt is due and before their newborn daughter can even be properly christened, those mercenary magicians have spirited her off to the faraway land of Gorequartz.

And so it falls to Bronwn's cousin Carole, a whistling witch with a gift for music, and her brother Prince Rupert, who is far too handsome for his own good, to rescue Bronwyn's babe from a land whose national pastime is human sacrifice.
