Elisette, a humble farm girl, never dreamed of life among the clouds. Hired as a nursemaid in the floating castle of Lan, she is swept into a world of shimmering halls and dangerous secrets. Amidst the splendor, she finds love with the gallant Capet Sard—only to face heartbreak when he disappears. Soon after she learns she is carrying his child.
Determined to find him, Elisette’s search leads her into the lands of Sard's family, and the hands of a false Duke whose claim to power threatens not only her freedom, but the future of the castle itself. Trapped between loyalty, fear, and a perilous love, Elisette must summon her courage before both her life and the fate of Lan crumble.
A suspenseful mixture of romance, fantasy, and mystery. Some of the secondary characters are familiar as they featured in the first book, Caishel. The heroine, Lise, is forced into vulnerable situations where she must choose between her loved ones. Positions of power are misused by a corrupt man who is more interested in satisfying his selfish appetites than running a kingdom. Lise becomes a pawn in his political games. An absorbing read in a magical world. Wendy Scott, Fantasy author,
