Deemed unfit for marriage, Sage is apprenticed to a matchmaker and tasked with wrangling other young ladies to be married off for political alliances. She spies on the girls--and on the soldiers escorting them. <p/>As the girls' military escort senses a political uprising, Sage is recruited by a handsome soldier to infiltrate the enemy ranks. The more she discovers as a spy, the less certain she becomes about whom to trust--and Sage becomes caught in a dangerous balancing act that will determine the fate of her kingdom. <p/>With secret identities and a tempestuous romance, Erin Beaty's novel, <i>The Traitor's Kiss</i>, is a classic story with an espionage twist. <p/><b>An Imprint Book</b> <p/><b>Marital and martial matters collide when brides and spies become ensnared in a treasonous plot</b>. . . .
