When Wayland North brings rain to a region that's been dry for over ten years, he's promised anything he'd like as a reward. He chooses the village elder's daughter, sixteen-year-old Sydelle Mirabel, who is a skilled weaver and has an unusual knack for repairing his magical cloaks. Though Sydelle has dreamt of escaping her home, she's hurt that her parents relinquish her so freely and finds herself awed and afraid of the slightly ragtag wizard who is unlike any of the men of magic in the tales she's heard. Still, she is drawn to this mysterious man who is fiercely protective of her and so reluctant to share his own past. The pair rushes toward the capital, intent to stop an imminent war, pursued by Reuel Dorwan (a dark wizard who has taken a keen interest in Sydelle) and plagued by unusually wild weather. But the sudden earthquakes and freak snowstorms may not be a coincidence. As Sydelle discovers North's dark secret and the reason for his interest in her and learns to master her own mysterious power, it becomes increasingly clear that the fate of the kingdom rests in her fingertips. She will either be a savior, weaving together the frayed bonds between Saldorra and Auster, or the disastrous force that destroys both kingdoms forever.From the Hardcover edition.

I think if you are a huge fan of fantasy perhaps you will be let down as there is not over-description of world around our main character. But if you like a good slow burning romantic build up, I...

Awww this book is so cute. I know i know it isnt supposed to be cute but there isn't much to it and its super easy to love. I love the characters but i wish there had been a better closure for for her and her family. The beginning felt too rushed but despite that the book was good. Glad i read it.

I just couldn't get into this one and didn't care about Sydelle. I liked North a lot more, which still wasn't much. I hate to DNF a fantasy, but here you go.

Reading some of the other reader's reviews of this book, I was thinking this book was going to be so bad that I would want to throw it against the floor in a heartbeat. The thing is, it's not AS bad as people make it sound. In fact, I like it because it doesn't take itself seriously. I've known far ...
