If you aren’t overheating from Rhys’ attitude, seeing him through Faedrah’s eyes or seeing him wear his heart on his sleeve, then the meltdown will come when these two set off enough sparks to light a roman candle! Speaking of sparks, Faedrah is one brilliantly brave young woman, a role model for princess-wannabes everywhere! Not only does Ms.

Could it be that a little wizardry and a whole lot of love is the real key to Austiere’s future?įrom cover to cover A Wizard Rises by A.

Only one man can save her from her nightmares, only one man holds the secret to her protection. Meanwhile, Faedrah is still suffering from the nightly assaults from Gaelleod as he pushes for his greatest prize, the key to controlling Austiere.

Even more important, he must prove his love for Faedrah to her family, one royal at a time. His evil father continues to batter and spread blight over the kingdom and Rhys must prove that he is NOT like his despicable father, if he isn’t killed, first. For Rhys and Faedrah, this turned out to be the least of their problems as Rhys’ legacy as a wizard roars to life with an uncontrollable blast. I do love when the dashing knight in shining armor has a little tarnish on his breastplate! Oh wait when Rhys meets Princess Faedrah’s parents, he isn’t wearing anything! Darn that dimension shift into the Austiere Kingdom. Until he can figure out his next move, prove himself an ally and uncover the clues to stopping Faedrah’s nightmares, he’s got no choice but to wait…and learn exactly what he’s become. At least her parents made the right decision and stuck him away someplace safe. He’s got zero control and his constant visions of Faedrah fighting an evil entity aren’t helping. Too bad the second he landed in Faedrah’s world the legacy he inherited slammed into his body like a weight. Magical powers were supposed to be a gift, or so Rhys McEleod had always believed. Her beloved has been cast into the dungeons, and no amount of arguing with the king and queen will prove he’s her fated love. Compounding her worries, Rhys’ arrival in her world has been welcomed with the exact horror-filled reaction she expected. Her nightmares have returned thricefold and, to her horror, a horrendous blight has spread like a plague throughout the kingdom. The homecoming celebration held in honor of Princess Faedrah is fraught with perilous frustration.
