Description:

Princess Elissia was wed to King Derand when only a baby, and they've never met. When Derand comes to claim his bride, he finds that his new wife has grown up to be as unbridled a brat as ever walked the streets of the kingdom.

But Derand is made of sterner stuff than Elissia's father, King Ostrin, and the young princess soon finds herself bare-bottomed over her husband's knee, as he is hardly one to tolerate her bratty ways. Elissia has no intention of staying with Derand - and then tragedy strikes.

Elissia's brother is kidnapped, and the only ones who can go in search of him are Elissia and Derand. A very uneasy truce is forged only to be broken again and again, as Derand attempts to tame his "princess brat."
