Lady Alma
language
(Avanell Publishing Oct. 30, 2018)
Her stepmother is a big problem… Until a corset attacks.
When her new stepmother and stepsister make life unbearable, Alma decides to escape by marrying well. A diplomatic ball is the perfect place to charm a nobleman, but disaster strikes when a magical corset tries to kill her while she’s dancing with the prince.
Alma’s search for answers only raises more questions. Someone wants her dead, but who? Her new stepfamily? The foreign diplomats who have allegedly come to make peace? When the prince asks for her help, Alma becomes tangled in a web of politics and magic that will take all her cunning to unweave, and she finds herself questioning if a noble marriage would actually give her the freedom she craves.
Can Alma overcome curses and conspiracies to find her place in Castana? Or does her destiny lie somewhere beyond the world she knows, in a future she’s never imagined?
Lady Alma is a novel about facing change and finding your own path. If you like magic, mystery, and strong female characters, you’ll love this new twist on the classic tale of Cinderella.
Author’s Note
Lady Alma is a prequel to Rook and Shadow, but it can be enjoyed as a stand-alone novel. While the books are loosely connected, each features a complete story with a different heroine.
