Devastated by the loss of her father, Zoe Ardelay is
baffled when someone from the royal city discovers her
isolated location and takes her to be the king's newest
wife. Luckily, Zoe is able to sneak away from Darien
Serlast's capable eyes and stay on the edge of the river.
Learning about not only her own strength, but also her
unusual past and familial gifts, she still becomes
embroiled in the royal intrigues.
Filled with a unique method of blessings used to determine
a person's character at birth and one's fate through life,
the world of TROUBLED WATERS is richly detailed to draw a
reader in immediately with a natural absorption instead of
the contrived feel that some worlds may have. Zoe is a
likable and interesting character, and her growth through
the course of the novel is superb. For instant immersion
into a deeply detailed story, pick up TROUBLED WATERS.
The author of the Twelve Hours series welcomes readers to
a new fantasy world, where the elements rule. Zoe Ardelay
receives astonishing and unwelcome news: she has been
chosen to become the king's fifth wife. Forced to go to
the royal city, she manages to slip away and hide on the
shores of the mighty river. It's there that Zoe realizes
she is a coru prime ruled by the elemental sign of water.
She must return to the palace, not as an unwilling bride
for the king, but a woman with power in her own right. But
as Zoe unlocks more of the mysteries of her blood-and the
secrets of the royal family-she must decide how to use her
great power to rise above the deceptions and intrigue of
the royal court.
