*Book 1 of 2* Everything seemed to be calm in Mirkwood for years, until an unexpected thing happened, which no one in the kingdom was prepared for. Melda Silverbow and her family decide to help after the council at the Mirkwood palace. That's when their lives go upside down. Mel, after meeting the prince of Mirkwood, befriends him and their feelings gradually grow for eachother. They never knew that their feelings would make things more complicated than they should. To make the matters even worse, he's to marry someone she never thought she'll see again. Will they get through all of this? Will they still like one another after what they experience? Or will everything fall apart? ---------------------------------------------------- A/N: This is my first story that I've written, so please keep any negative comments to yourself.
