In Aldonnia, the
evil of Varkadon overflows its borders. War ravages the lands…
For as long as eighteen
year-old Alanna can remember she’s lived in hiding, sealed off from the outside
world. Despite a future built around a steadfast rule of seclusion, Alanna
dreams of the impossible. Of a life outside of her parents’ cabin. A life with
more for company than just birds and woodland creatures. A life she knows deep
down is impossible for someone with gifts like hers.
That all changes
the day Alanna finds a man floating face down in a stream. Despite her parents’
warnings, Alanna pulls the injured man out of the water and heals him with her
elemental talents. Just another good deed. Until the man wakes and Alanna
realizes so much more has happened than simply a life saved. The healing she
performed on the stranger bound her soul to Jerric, the prince of Aldonnia.
Alanna’s heart
wants to keep the prince, but duty and destiny intervene. Alanna’s world is
rocked as her parents are lost. Left in the care of family she didn’t know, Alanna
learns more than she wanted to about the evil threatening the lands. There is much
more behind her parents’ drive to protect. Alanna learns her gifts were
bestowed in order to fulfill a greater purpose. A greater calling. One her
enemies seek to destroy at all cost.
Alanna’s choice is clear. To either ignore
her destiny and remain hidden, or boldly fight to keep what sings to her heart.
