The Lost Rose

Clara has a terrible secret, a sin she won't reveal, not even to Luca, the man who rescues her from the lake where she's thrown herself, hoping death would silence her pain. While Luca nurses Clara to health and tries to gain her trust, mutiny is brewing in Tharun, their neighboring kingdom. When news of this reaches Luca, he and Clara travel together to stay out of danger. But little do they know that the usurper, Adrian, an evil sorcerer who is determined to magically enslave Clara into marriage, is already on their heels. Clara's sin catches up with her as she and Luca meet the magical Wanderers who reveal her secret. As they stand in the middle of a battle against Adrian, can Luca forgive Clara's sin and stay true to his promise of keeping her safe? Will Clara's own magic and determination prove enough to repel Adrian's sorcery? And even with the help of unexpected allies, will the couple be able to save the kingdom they have lost to darkness?
