Two sisters. One enchanted forest. And a dangerous choice that could destroy kingdoms...
Swept away from her ordinary life, Rose Valrois finds herself in a world full of secrets and forbidden magic. There she meets her new stepsister, the enigmatic Princess Neeve, who will either become her best friend…or her worst enemy.
Three full-length novels-over 1,000 pages of sweeping fantasy adventure! Includes: White as Frost, Black as Night, and Red as Flame.
In the shadows of the magical Darkwood, Rose discovers danger and adventure in her quest to uncover the mysteries surrounding her. When she's rescued by Thorne, the handsome Dark Elf guardian of the forest, he binds her to the Darkwood and forbids her to speak of its secrets. But secrets have a way of getting loose, especially when there's hidden magic involved, and Rose falls deeper into the thorny tangles of her own past.
Her sister, Neeve, is concealing dangerous powers of her own, and the two of them are soon caught up in a destiny that will bring them face-to-face on opposing sides of a deadly magical war. Ultimately, Rose must risk her freedom, her world, and even her truest love to save her sister. Can she bear to make that sacrifice? Does she even have the choice?
