"This book feels like if Sarah J Maas and Anne McCaffrey had a baby and it was raised by Lisa Kleypas and Julia Quinn."

. . . . . . . . . . .
A girl with a secret . . .
In the back of an ambulance, River Greer counts each breath her little sister takes until the final one: Sageโs body is giving up, ravaged by a mysterious illness. The late-night rush to the ER, however, turns into a surreal nightmare when River is abducted and ferried across the universe to the fabled Thule: a world beyond worlds, where Victorian mores collide with magic and Arthurian legend.
. . . meets a knight on a mission.
There, His Grace Hadrian Landevale of Caid is fighting losing battles of his own: to recover Isolde, his runaway wife, and against the blight that threatens the ichor, the source of all life on Thule. To add insult to injury, the captured fugitive Thule's pathfinders just brought back from Earth is not his duchess but an eerie doppelgรคnger.
When it becomes clear that someone will go to any length to silence River, Hadrian offers his protection to this obstinate stranger . . . whose secrets might be the key to saving Thuleโs most precious treasure: the light in its blood.
Follow River on her epic, and at times bewildering journey to a world shaped by legends and magic, where everything is possible . . . except going home.
