Living up to the expectations of one’s family can be rough, especially when your father is the king. No matter what Prince Michael does, he cannot seem to measure up to his father’s expectations. His brother, Prince Mark, does not have that problem, and he teases his brother mercilessly.
Prince Michael’s problems are somewhat improved when he is assigned a personal bodyguard—and not just any bodyguard, but his father’s Captain of Guards’ only son.
However, it seems that Sam has his own secrets. Sam is also living up to a father’s expectations. But when Prince Michael decides to run away from home, Sam must bring him back. At least, that is what Sam was supposed to do until it was decided that leaving the castle might not be such a bad idea after all. Especially when your father wants you to become strong, independent, and self-reliant. Read the Journey and discover what happens to the two as they are kidnapped, incarcerated, and finally just want to go home.
