Cheska never imagined she’d be dragged into a world of magic and castles straight out of her favorite novels. But when a bitter and mysterious summoning pulls her— and her favorite author— into this realm, she’s forced to face a story far more tangled than fiction.

Surrounded by royal intrigue, dangerous creatures, and secrets tied to her companion’s past, Cheska must navigate a world both familiar and foreign. 
Why was she summoned? What truths lie hidden in this magical land? 
And how will an ordinary woman handle an extraordinary adventure?

The fire crackled, casting wavering shadows against the trees. Cheska scoffed, crossing her arms as she leaned slightly toward Riverus.

Cheska frowned, drawn into the conversation. "Really? Then what about her being skilled in alchemy, magic, and medicine?"

"That's because she spent years refining those skills." Riverus handed her a fresh skewer of marshmallows before tossing one to Desmond, who caught it without missing a beat.
