Lady Roslyn's life is in danger, and her only hope lies in the hands of a loyal servant.

Political rivals have forced her into hiding for four long years, but her heart yearns to return home. When she is relocated to Bridgefield, she finds a community that accepts her, and a groundskeeper named John who promises protection and teaches her self-defense.

As their self-defense lessons turn into whispered confessions and growing affection, Roslyn begins to see John as her true home. Yet, choosing love with John means risking her family and her safety. Despite the differences in their social standing, their bond deepens, and Roslyn must decide if love is worth the ultimate risk.

When Roslyn is summoned back home, John must let her go. But the question remains: is the danger truly over, or is Roslyn walking into a trap? John’s love and protection have kept her safe so far, but will it be enough?

This heartwarming clean romance, a touching Sleeping Beauty retelling, showcases the power of love, loyalty, and overcoming prejudice. Dive into a story where finding someone you can rely on and choosing them above all else brings joy and hope.

Annette K. Larsen

I write sweet, clean romance. Why? Because that's what I love to read, but over the years I've discovered it's quite a challenge to find wholesome romance that's also quality romance. I believe it's a genre that many people are looking for and too few authors are writing. My first novel, Just Ella, took me many years to write because I wanted it to be more than just a cutesy love story. I wanted it to have depth, to feel genuine. Hopefully I succeeded, but you'll have to be the judge.

I have Charlotte Bronte to thank for the courage to write novels. After being bombarded with assigned reading about women who justified abandoning either their families or their principles in the name of love, I had the great fortune of reading Jane Eyre. And that was it: finally a heroine who understood that being moral and making the right choice was hard, and sometimes it hurt, but it was still worth it. After rereading it several years later, I realized that if I wanted more books to exist with the kinds of heroines I admired, then I might as well write a few myself. My books are about women who face hard choices, who face pain and rejection and often have to sacrifice what they want for what is right. The consequences are often difficult or unpleasant, but in the end, doing what's right will always be worth it.

I was born in Utah, but grew up in Flagstaff Arizona and St. Louis Missouri, the fifth of seven children. I studied English and Theater in college. I now live in Idaho with my husband and five littles.

I believe there is no substitute for good writing or good chocolate. Fortunately, one often leads to the other.
