The Healer's Apprentice

Rose is a healer's apprentice at Hagenheim Castle, a rare opportunity for a woodcutter's daughter like her. Rose is determined to prove herself capable. Failure will mean returning home to marry the aging bachelor her mother has chosen for her-a man who makes Rose feel ill. When Lord Hamlin, the future duke, is injured, it is Rose who must tend to him. As she works to heal his wound, she begins to understand emotions she's never felt before and wonders if he feels the same. But falling in love is forbidden, as Lord Hamlin is betrothed to a mysterious young woman in hiding. As Rose's life spins toward confusion, she must take the first steps on a journey to discover her own destiny.
