A merchant’s daughter who knows better than to pick roses. A Legacy determined to force them into a story neither wants. Rosalie’s family has already lost everything, and she’s willing to do whatever it takes to protect them from further harm. Even if that means stopping ignorant newcomers from picking enchanted roses. Dimitri knows little about his new kingdom, and he can’t help being captivated by the fiery girl who holds the answers. But Rosalie seems horrified by both his presence and his handsome face, and it turns out she has good reason. In the kingdom of Glandore, it’s a dangerous thing to be a young man of royal blood living alone in a castle. Almost as dangerous as being the youngest daughter of a merchant. Enter a world where tales of the past shape the enchanted landscape—where glass can bend like a slipper and picking a rose courts danger. A world where the inhabitants must overcome the fabled Legacies as they find romance, adventure, and friendship. less

She’s ready to finally be free of the sleepiness, even if that means returning to the birth kingdom she left long ago. But when she steps over the border, the Legacy’s enchantment doesn’t lift. Apparently she’s going to have to fight harder to escape its clutches—something that would be easier if the very handsome Finley didn’t keep getting in her way. Finley has spent his life protecting his younger brother—but when the foolhardy youth falls prey to the Legacy, the boy is going to need more than just Fin to escape. Thankfully a new arrival to the kingdom gives Fin hope, even if he has to use a tiny deception to secure her assistance. But the deception has consequences neither expected, and both their plans are soon in tatters. When they’re forced to work together, how can Daphne trust someone who lied to her and how can Fin save both his brother and the beautiful girl who’s slowly stealing his heart?
