With their lives in Tannersfield behind them, Elizabeth, Isaac, and Kaylein are forced to strike a difficult bargain with the cunning Marquess Larmond as he plots rebellion against the crown. The price of their freedom leads them to the remote hilltop village of Kinedwyn, where they hope to begin a new chapter of their lives. Isaac seeks to ingratiate himself with the lord of the manor, while Kaylein, torn between her heart and her vows, struggles to rebuild the local priory. Elizabeth pursues her dream of becoming lady of her own house, oblivious to an unexpected romance that creeps up on her as the years pass by.

But as the spectre of civil war stirs the kingdom to arms, Sir Edward has not forgotten his revenge. War is a time of advancement for knights. Seeking glory, vindication, and a prestigious marriage to a new bride, he bides his time waiting for the moment he and his old enemies cross paths again.

Hearts are wayward things, and neither Elizabeth, Isaac, nor Kaylein will escape unscathed from the follies of love as Edward's terrible revenge draws near.

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?
