Botanist Stories

Ellyn Thatch was never meant to matter to history. She is only the daughter of a royal groundskeeper, one child among many in a crowded commoner's home where every coin matters and winter must be prepared for long before the first snow. But Ellyn remembers another life. A life where she was a botanist, Marine, field medic, forest ranger, survivalist, forager, and cook. So she adapts. She gathers what others ignore, preserves food before it spoils, makes soaps, medicines, dyes, salves, and survival foods, and quietly helps keep her enormous family fed and cared for. She expects that to be enough. Then Princess Helaena Targaryen finds her in the gardens. What begins with flowers, insects, and an unlikely friendship slowly pulls Ellyn into the orbit of House Targaryen. Soon princes are seeking her company, young lords are noticing her, letters arrive from Oldtown, and invitations begin looking suspiciously like courtship. Ellyn may know how to survive the wilderness, treat wounds, and prepare a household for disaster, but apparently recognizing when someone is in love with her is another skill entirely. Yet romance will not be the only thing tying her to the royal family. As tensions rise and the realm moves toward war, Ellyn's knowledge, loyalty, and refusal to abandon the people she loves will place the groundskeeper's daughter far closer to history than anyone expected. Kings will know her name. Queens will trust her. Princes will seek her heart. And when the dragons begin to dance, Ellyn Thatch may become one of the people who changes who survives the fire. History remembers dragons. Perhaps it should have remembered the groundskeeper's daughter.

It's been five years since the bitter-cold Queen of Thybor announced an annual celebration of Love and Devotion, where ten unmarried ladies and ten unmarried gentlemen are randomly paired to marry. If you are chosen, there is no way back. You will be taken to Wolf's Fang, an isolated castle in the foggy mountains, to prepare for your wedding eight weeks later. Refusal is accepted, of course-but don't expect to survive it. When Dalia Karlson, a twenty-two-year-old professional dancer, and her fiancé are selected, she desperately hopes they will be arranged to marry. But that doesn't happen. Instead, she is forced into an engagement with the worst man imaginable-Phil Thorn, a criminal brought directly from the Fox Islands. Marrying this brutal, unfeeling man would not only be a nightmare; it would also destroy her career as a dance tutor to young royals and, most importantly, separate her from the one true love she has always been searching for. As the Queen plays her twisted games with the couples before their wedding, it becomes clear that she wants the betrothed to hate each other as much as possible. That's when Dalia realizes there is one way she might be paired with her real fiancé after all: by pretending to hate him and appearing madly in love with Phil. With his strange habit of collecting plants and creating potions, Phil is not the typical criminal. But that doesn't make him any less dangerous. In fact, Dalia knows that even the most innocent people can stab you in the back-and that revenge is often the best remedy. Sweet Foxgloves is a twisty fantasy romance set in a world of mystical forests, lethal dragons, and secrets punishable by torture and death.
