โฆ Synopsis
Aveline and Emmaline did everything together. That all came to a halt right before their sixteenth birthday, when a stranger attacked the twins in the woods, tied them each to a tree, and left them to die. Only Aveline survived.
Out of equal parts survivor's guilt and desperation, Aveline returns to the scene for answers. But one answer leads to more questions when she discovers a magical connection to some of the forest trees.
Then there's the encounter with Moncreiffe O'Leary, a self-proclaimed druid and bard whom she met while attending his lecture with her best friend Collen and his handsome older brother Gareth. Moncreiffe's reaction to Aveline's questions are truly puzzling. And things only get more confusing as she uncovers more mysteries, including a shocking family secret (or two).
Prepare to become engrossed in Aveline's journey as she deals with the grief of losing her sister, the hassle of an overbearing father, the discomfort of being in the middle of a love triangle, and the utter disbelief and frustration of having a supernatural power. And settle in as she tries to untangle the mysteries surrounding her very existence.
