What if the Swan Princess and the Black Swan were one and the same?
After the darkness of her difficult childhood, Ramsey has found a single shaft of light in her unexpected friendship with Crown Prince Nolan, a relationship that gradually deepens to romance as they grow up together. Even though she's captured the heart of the prince, Ramsey believes herself to be undeserving...as does the king when he discovers his son's affections have been secured by a mere servant.
After a royal threat forces Ramsey to break the prince's heart, she tries to rebuild her life without him...good intentions that are thwarted when she stumbles upon an enchanted lake whose magic will transform her into one the king deems deserving to stand at her dear Nolan's side.
But all magic comes at a cost. The more Ramsey is forced to sacrifice to the curse, the more of herself she loses, until she has become someone unrecognizable to the woman Prince Nolan initially fell in love with. Only beneath the moonlight does the magic weaken enough for her to rediscover her true self and the relationship she sacrificed.
It's only by losing herself and the prince's heart that Ramsey finally learns what it means to truly love...if it's still not too late for her to reclaim it. Will she be able to strip away the illusion of the black swan to reveal the swan that has always been hidden within her, or will she lose herself and her beloved to the curse forever?
