A Kiss of Winter

My fate was sealed the day I met a prince while planting roses in my grandmother’s window box. I didn’t know, then, what the boy’s friendship would cost me—only that he and I were inseparable from that day forth.
I ignored the whispers that a scullery maid could never truly be friends with a prince. They were right. As we grew older, Kai became my one and only love, for better or worse.
But on his Ascension Day, a bitter wind cuts through our land of eternal summer, and a wicked fae witch steals him away. His body remains, but his soul is lost to her cold cruelty.

No human can stand against The Snow Queen. But I will follow her to the ends of the earth to bring Kai back—even if it costs me my own life.
