Kaitlin Jacobs has a strange encounter with a blue eyed, blonde haired elven boy in the forest on her aunt's land. He promises that one day he will return for her before disappearing through a magical gateway.
Five years later, her mother suddenly dies and while attending the reading of her will, she discovers an unbelievable truth. She is not human but half Elf blood and half Witch.
Humankind is about to be destroyed by the Shadowmen and Keltor, the boy from the forest has returned to act as her Protector. Battling against the shadow demons, he takes Kaitlin to the world of Elvendon to take her place as an Elven Princess and have her powers restored to her.
They depart on a quest to find the Star of Elmrock, a magical entity that is now the only hope left to save humankind. Her Protector must not only keep her safe from the Shadowmen, but also from the Elves who would see the world of humans destroyed.
Kaitlin has a destiny to fulfil, and in the eyes of her true father, Keltor is a mere servant. Knowing that he must not be a distraction, her Protector hides his true feelings from her. However, unknown to Kaitlin, the King has other plans for his daughter.
