Aww... it made me cry. It did. (In the happy way.) A completely sweet fairytale romance with castles and royalty and wise healer women and brave guards and good-natured tavern keepers and villagers and all that good stuff, along with a dosage of politics, intrigue, injustice, cruelty and illegitimacy. Oh, and "elves". And themes of personal freedom and justice and love....
No great quests or saving the world, but more of a focus on a young woman's growing up and coming to terms with the world...

This is the first book I've read by this author . . . Why did I waste all that time? Great book.
Corie was a girl with a talent for witchcraft and a taste for adventure--The illegitimate child of a royal lord, she longed for a man who could never be hers. And she lived for her summers at Castle Auburn.
Now she is a woman who has grown accustomed to standing alone. What she once loved, she has lost. Where she once saw joy, she now sees terrible injustice. And at the castle where she once lived in peace, she now walks in fear for her life.
The author has also written, THE SHAPE-CHANGER'S WIFE, ARCHANGEL, JOVAH'S ANGEL, THE ALLELUIA FILES, WRAPT IN CRYSTAL, and HEART OF GOLD.
