of our Ezine!
by Leah Cypess
Isabel remembers nothing. Nothing before the prince rode into her forest to take her back to the castle. Nothing about who she is supposed to be, or the powers she is supposed to have.
Prince Rokan needs Isabel to be his Shifter. He needs her ability to shift to animal form, to wind, to mist. He needs her lethal speed and superhuman strength. And he needs her loyalty—because without it, she may be his greatest threat.
Isabel knows that her prince is lying to her, but she can't help wanting to protect him from the dangers and intrigues of the court . . . until a deadly truth shatters the bond between them.
Now Isabel faces a choice that threatens her loyalty, her heart . . . and everything she thought she knew.
"Starred Review. The greatest magic is the power of choice in this lush, romantic debut fantasy .... Astonishing and inspiring." - Kirkus Reviews
"An unusual, suspenseful fantasy that is propelled by well-placed clues." - Booklist
"An excellent addition for all collections with a strong fantasy following. Grades 7 up." - School Library Journal
"The plot has some fundamental holes ... Still, it's evident that Cypess is an able writer: the premise is novel, her characterizations ring true, and the emotional bond that develops between Isabel and Rokan will for many readers be the most important part of the story. Ages 12–up." - Publishers Weekly
