Book excerpt: Five years have passed since Elizabeth, Isaac, and Kaylein's lives were torn apart. The kingdom rests at peace, but the scars left by the war still mark each of them deeply. Restored to the feudal hierarchy against their will, Isaac and Kaylein exercise what power they have to temper the reach of Duke Francis and the newly ennobled Lord Edward. Meanwhile, Elizabeth strives to put the past behind her, praying that her family will not have its heart ripped out a second time. Despite fate having pulled the three apart, their paths intertwine once more when a growing rift within the church places Kaylein at odds with Lord Edward and his powerful benefactors. A secret from her past threatens to upend both her and Elizabeth's lives should it come to light, and Edward has the scent of it. Together once again, the three friends struggle to piece back some of what was broken, but with so much lost, is there any hope of a return to better days? The stories of Elizabeth, Isaac, Kaylein, and Edward are about to reach their end. Set in a fictional medieval kingdom, The Book of Roses tells the story of four young people searching for safety, love, and belonging in a world rife with injustice. Can a good heart still flourish in an age of darkness?
