Klappentext

There has always been a wildness to Keira's magic-a restless curiosity that once led her deep into the forests of her childhood and a fierce power that thrums through her veins. Her gift was a mystery to her until the day the red wizard arrived. He became her guardian and teacher, whisking her away to his remote tower, where she spent years mastering her natural magics and learning the secrets of the arcane.

Penniless and bruised in the midst of a summer storm, Caspian takes refuge in the very same tower, not knowing that it will change the course of his life. He becomes a permanent fixture, working as a farmhand as he comes to know the wizard's intriguing ward. His friendship with Keira grows into the blossoms of first love. However their plans to run away together are cut short as Caspian is sent off to war never to return.

Four year later, Keira finds herself on an unexpected path, working with a band of mercenary adventurers known as the Blades of Fate. When a message from her estranged guardian brings her back home, she learns the truth: Caspian is in fact not only alive, but by some twist of fate, now a titled lord. Keira is torn between her desire to rekindle their love and the fear that she no longer has a place in his life. Yet as darkness gathers, she will have to risk more than her broken heart in order to fight for their second chance at love.
