An enchanting fairytale-like escape.

Nothing less than a miracle can free her from her parents’ choice of husband, but she’s determined to try.

Only fate can draw him back to the land of his ancestors and his legacy, and he must make it there before it’s too late.

Lady Starr desires to discover what life is like beyond the castle walls and ventures out on her own, dressed as a common villager. She’s heard of chance encounters that blossomed into romance in fairy tales and folklore, but can her dreams of finding a deep and forever love come true?

Hungry, sick, and destitute, Whit finds refuge from strife and war in a neighboring land. As a soldier in exile, he has no other choice but to beg for scraps at the marketplace and draw portraits for a pittance.

When Lady Starr asks the pauper to render her portrait, he is smitten…not only with her beauty but with the impression of goodness that surrounds her.

The gentle maiden seems to enjoy his company, but Whit carries a deeply hidden secret—one that cannot be revealed until the time is right…and that day may never come.

From award-winning author Heidi Eljarbo comes a clean and sweet romance novella about two people destined to be together. Goodness and perseverance combined with the magic of December and Christmastime may be what they need to help them both find a new start.
