Rebecca Beauvelley is a ruined woman. In a moment of girlish folly, she
allowed a high-flying young man to take her up in his phaeton, not realizing
that he was drunk. When he dropped the ribbons, she recovered them, but not in
time to avoid disaster. The young man was killed in the accident. Rebecca
survived, with a withered arm to remind her of the wages of folly, and a
reputation in tatters. Against all expectation, her father has found someone, an
elderly rogue, who will marry her. Rebecca's life seems set, and she resigned to
it, when Altimere, a Fey, appears and uses his magic to show her two futures: In
the first, she is abused and neglected as the dutiful wife; in the second, she
is dressed and bejeweled like a princess. Rebecca chooses the second future and
elopes with Altimere. Unfortunately, Altimere has an agenda of his own. The
first of a two-book series. Watch for the sequel, Longeye, coming April
2009.
