The volatile and unruly pyromancer Princess Alessandra Verzole did not sign up to attend the matchmaking school for royalty on the Island of Bonnamy. Her opinion was never considered. She is more feared than loved by her people, and knows above all that she will be compared to the princesses of old, clever, beautiful and overall perfect. The Bonnamy School has never failed, and its administration does not care who signs up: each student will wed before leaving, or never leave, at all.
