Summary
Tiy is different than the other Egyptian girls--she has pale hair and more freckles than she wants to count. With her mother consumed by the need to keep up appearances, and her father too busy to care, Tiy just wants to disappear into the background. But her hope for a quiet life is shattered when she rescues Prince Amenhotep from a sandstorm and is rewarded with an invitation to attend the royal school in Egypt’s capital—-a place where girls like her will never belong.
Amenhotep welcomes her into his close circle of friends and their friendship strengthens into a bond neither is willing to lose. But when Amenhotep becomes Pharaoh and is pressured by the priests to marry, the strength of their friendship is threatened. Will Tiy find enough courage to accept Amenhotep’s hand when he wants her to become the next Queen of Egypt, especially when her feelings run no deeper than friendship? And how can she protect him from the Nubian rebels who are determined to take control of Egypt.

About the Author
Debbie
Dee recently moved to southern Idaho with her husband and three children where
she is learning how to be a country girl in her favorite pair of blue heels.
She adores fairy tales and happy endings, but secretly crushes on the bad guy
now and then.
As
a dedicated musician who practices way too much, she never expected writing
would sweep her off her feet until she jotted down a scene from a daydream,
which turned into two scenes, which turned into a messy house and her first
novel. Since then she hasn’t been able to let a day go by without
writing.
In
addition to writing, she plays the piano, harp, violin, and gets in frequent
fights with her cello. She loves to read and play board games - when she is
winning.
