Cin d'Rella and the Water of Life, Circle of the Rose Chronicles, Book 1
(Book #1 in the Circle of the Rose Chronicles Series)
She is our Rose. We are her Thorns.
Cin d'Rella has lived in Briardale her whole life, but not by choice. One hundred years ago, Briar Rose was placed under a magical curse of eternal slumber, separating Cin's beloved city from the rest of the world. Upon her father's death, she is thrust into the clutches of her wicked stepfamily. But destiny comes knocking in the unassuming form of a man who whisks her off to Thorn Hill Academy where she will be trained to become a Thorn. Thorns are an elite fighting force trained at an early age to protect Briar Rose and search for a way to break the curse once and for all.
Her mission is clear until a chance encounter with the dashing Coltan Prince turns her world upside down. For decades, his family has been sabotaging the Thorns' efforts to awaken Briar Rose. Although Cin knows Coltan is the enemy, she is inexplicably charmed by him. When Coltan goes to the Thorns with information about the whereabouts of the fabled Water of Life, Cin must decide if she can trust a man she has been taught to hate.
For readers of The Lunar Chronicles, Court of Thorns and Roses, and Six of Crows.
Appropriate for ages 13+.
