Book Haunt

This book really grabbed me from the beginning.  It's not often you start a book with one of the main characters being in prison.    

Ottilde Dominax is a warrior for her country, yet a hated prisoner because she killed the prince heir.  She lives day to day fearing for her life and hoping for reprieve.  When she dreams that her twin sister Oriabel's life is in danger, she must devise an escape plan.

Oriabel Dominax is a healer with the hidden secret of being witchborn. As newcomers descend on Oriabel's village she struggles to keep her witch magic a secret but when a new lord is sent to preside over her family's estate her life hangs in the balance.

Perfect for fans of Juliet Marrillier, this book is magical and spellbinding.  A very quick and immensely enjoyable read.  I can't wait to read the second installment.

I want to thank the publisher (Lakewater Press) for providing me with the ARC through Netgalley for an honest review.
