Her Heart of Fire (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798215970195)

Elena was nothing but a young woman from a small village on the kingdom's frontier, at least that's what she always believed. She did possess magic, a trait more common among the ruling nobility, but she never thought it that special. When the Queen herself invited Elena to come to the palace, to learn to harness her gift and rise to the rank of noble to become a Guardian of the Palace, how could she say no?

It was there she met Prince Elias, the second Prince of House Thorne, and a man trouble by a darkness Elena could not place. Her instincts told her there was more to him than the insufferable, irritating, and insulting persona he presented. Elena had a thirst for knowledge in all forms, and especially one for him. As she learned more about her power, more about him, the more she felt drawn in by his emerald eyes and the feel of his magic. All the while something grew inside her, something she herself was not even aware of but her emotions burned and smoldered, especially with a look from Prince Elias.

Could she resist the growing desire to be close to the prince, and risk her chance to learn about her magic? Or would she give in to the flame of her heart and see if he could feel the same? How could a prince fall in love with a village girl, and how could she heal the scars left by whatever darkness consumed him?
