The Heiress of Gaia by Dauphne Paige

Ayne is the heiress to the throne of Gaia; she’s been trained and prepped and told her entire life that this is what she’s destined for. But when a traveler tells her of his adventures, she can’t help but feel trapped, longing to see anything besides her palace walls. Sneaking from her chambers with her faithful gerbil, Caz, she follows the man into the night. Little does she know that the man isn’t just a passing traveler, he’s actually a spy, sent to capture and hand over the heiress of Gaia to the queen of Klymora. Inside the Klymora palace she’s forced to serve on the Caledonia Court, where she discovers a treacherous secret harbored within their walls. The only people she can confide in are Miss Dendlewind and Prince Talin. After a failed attempt at escaping, she’s pushed into a marriage with the enemy prince, promising that the war between their kingdoms will stop. But with lies, magic, and murder causing mayhem in her life...who can she really trust?
