Secrets of Fathara (Azetha #1)

WHAT IF YOU FOUND OUT YOU WEREN'T REALLY A PRINCESS AND YOUR PARENTS WEREN'T YOUR PARENTS? When Tika opens a letter from her recently deceased mother on her 16th birthday, she has no idea she will discover a confession which will change her life forever: "You were not born of me, but sent here by the Elves to keep you safe." From that moment on Tika is thrust into a world of danger and deception, not knowing who she can trust. She is forced to leave her life in the castle, packed up in stuffy wagon in the dead of night to head to the Elven city of Xanti, where she hopes to be safe from Mortan, the rogue sorcerer who is trying to kill her. But Mortan has his spies, his evil Sha'andari hunting her, and even a traitor within Tika's group. For there was a reason the Elves placed Tika with King Maric and Queen Isleen when she was a baby-a reason Tika never felt like she belonged, and a reason Fathara needs her.
