"This historical-feeling book has no history but felt vaguely medieval. That rooted the world for me while the deeply drawn characters and twisting plot made me turn pages. I didn't want it to end." - Sara

"This book is hands down the best medieval fantasy novel I've read in years." - Lauren S.

"Kassia is a sassy, scrappy character who hooked me from the opening." - cb

"Stephanie Churchill has vividly created a world that will feel familiar to those who enjoy medieval fiction. Kassia experiences adventures that take her on the full range of fortune's wheel, and each setting is beautifully described. I had a clear vision of mountain vistas, sparkling lakes, bustling cities, and thick forests, and each felt as though I was there at Kassia's side... We get to laugh out loud at her snarky sarcasm while we are sharing her inner pain and doubt. This strong, courageous young woman goes through more to get her happily ever after than anyone in the story, besides the reader, is privy to." - Carpe Librum

Upon reaching adulthood, Stephanie developed a love of reading history andhistorical fiction. But never once did it occur to her to become awriter. Working in the field of law instead, it took a nudge from herfavorite author suggesting that she try her hand at becoming an author.

Filled with action and romance, loyalty and betrayal, her writing relieson deeply drawn and complex characters, exploring the subtleties of imperfectpeople living in a gritty, sometimes dark world.
