Synopsis:
A medieval cross-dressing farce. To help her secretly-engaged best friend evade the advances of a conniving Viscount, Gillian takes matters into her own hands and stands in as Leah's fiancee. Gill assumes the viscount won't call their bluff, but circumstances force Gillian and Leah to go through with the marriage, since Leah's actual fiancee is abroad fighting in an increasingly unpopular colonial crusade. But when Gill and Leah are invited to court for an extended celebration of their marriage, they begin to discover things that the state has been hiding -- things about magic, gender relations, and the ongoing war that no woman was ever supposed to know...
This novel was commissioned as part of the fandom auction organized by livejournal community livelongnmarry, in order to raise funds to support marriage equality in California and defeat Proposition 8 on the fall ballot.
