It Started With a Prince

The Breathtakingly beautiful Serinde Amerisque is almost of age when she begins to dream of a dark handsome man. But her dreams are so vividly real that she feels his kisses as he holds her in his arms. He draws Serinde into his embrace telling her he loves her and asks if she will be his forever. From that moment on, the beautiful maiden can think of nothing else but the man in her dreams each night. But her dream man is no dream but a real flesh and blood Prince, who will move heaven and earth to make her his own, traveling across the seas from Kharu to Zaphara where he first encountered the enticing fragrance that invaded his thoughts. But he was not the only suitor for Serinde's affections. Ever since the night of the ball when he first saw her like a glittering diamond at the top of the stairs, Prince Friedrich was determined that nothing would be too high a price, not kidnapping, murder or war, to make Lady Amerisque his own. Deep in the mists of Prysm, where the land is dying and needing one to bring the magic back, repairing the rift between the rulers and healing the land before it's too late. Serinde's Grandmother decides nothing will get in the way of bringing her Granddaughter home to her rightful place. She traps Serinde's love in the dungeons of Seregmir to secretly make him disappear while marrying Serinde to the fey Prince Arahel, uniting all of Prysm once more. Serinde finds herself enmeshed in a web of lies and deceit, unable to escape the net woven around her. Somehow she has to save her beloved, and foil the cunning plans of the four rulers of Prysm so that the Fey are free of their machinations once and for all. It seems an impossible task to free the land, especially as Prysm is a truly sentient magical land with a mind of its own, and has decided for itself who was going to rule over her people. Words by Pedir the Wise are fulfilled at terrible cost and Serinde finds herself woven in the tale risking all she holds dear frantically hiding the most important secret in both kingdoms.
