QUICK PITCH: A prince is deposed by his brother. Adding insult to injury, he is secretly sent to serve as a slave for his royal counterpart in an enemy court. Intrigue and feelings ensue. 

VERDICT: Damen is a great fish out of water, Laurent is a perfect snake in tall grass, and the intrigue is twisty enough to keep me interested without being too complicated to follow. A perfect book to read in a hammock.
