Clarise Havens lived in the real world. She didn’t believe in aliens, or monsters, or magic. She was content to live her life in the modern world and only read about those things in fantasy or sci-fi novels. At fifteen years old, she thought that she had already gone through the most difficult times of her life. The loss of her mother and her best friend. Little did she know that one hike in the forest would change her life forever. Transported to a world of dragons, and knights, and Kings, Clarise must find a way to carve out a life for herself. She must learn to harness the magic she never knew she had and learn to defend herself with weapons she has only read about in stories. Will a relationship with a warrior turn out to be love? Or will it be the prince who mends her broken heart? In the end, Clarise must make choices and learn how to live in a world so unlike the one she was born into. The hardest times are just beginning.
