A Secret Hope
Can one find hope in a field of feathers and broken dreams?
Catalina Marionotti is the beloved princess of Maryn, a small kingdom that once flourished and thrived. After famine strikes her land, she is sent off to marry a king and restore her land’s coffers. Despite the help this will bring to her family, she can’t help but feel the fear of an unknown land. In an attempt to settle in, she trades places with her trusting maid who is more than willing to take on the role, not realizing this may be the most dangerous choice she’s ever made.
Yet as Catalina spends her days tending to the geese in the fields of Whyst, she finds a new sense of peace and belonging. Her companionship with the goose boy, Alion, grows and she realizes she must return to her place alongside the king of Whyst before she falls too deeply. Unfortunately, Catalina finds herself on the edge of disaster as new secrets come to light. Will she lose everything and everyone she loves? Or will she find a way to save two kingdoms in danger?
