The Midsummer Maiden

By Elle Chanterelle

A lyrical, shocking folktale of young love and finding one's home...

For generations, the Lanthir family has lived in the forests of Kildare, protecting their home from the ancient evils that lurk beyond the veil. As the eldest son, Lucian Lanthir has spent his life honoring that duty-placing faith, family, and sacrifice above his own desires.

Until he meets Aislyn Myrrdin.

Gentle, mysterious, and burdened by secrets she never chose, Aislyn longs for a place where she belongs. Drawn together during the annual Midsummer Festival, she and Lucian discover a love that neither of them can deny, even as whispers of darkness begin to close in around them.

When an ancient evil awakens in the forest, old legends prove terrifyingly real. The closer Lucian grows to Aislyn, the more he risks not only his own life, but the safety of the family he has sworn to protect.

Torn between the woman he loves and the people who raised him, Lucian must decide whether love is worth the cost-or whether some destinies are written to end in heartbreak.

Rich with folklore, gothic atmosphere, faith, family, and forbidden romance, The Midsummer Maiden is the first installment of a haunting fantasy saga where love and duty stand on opposite sides of an ancient war.
