~Inspired by the Studio Ghibli movie Howl's Moving Castle.~

Being the black sheep in an upper-class community is hard, especially when your family prides themselves in their wealth and popularity. For Maria Harding, she, unfortunately, is that black sheep. Unlike those around her, Maria yearns for a simpler life. One where she can explore the world. What she didn't expect was for her dream to come true in the form of kidnapping.

                                                                                    *****
After being snatched by two mysterious figures, Maria is taken to a whole new world and is on the verge of being sold into slavery when the charming Prince Felix saves her. As their bond grows, Maria learns of Felix's cure that has been placed on him by the powerful spell caster, Isabel, who has become paranoid by the notion that Maria will be her doom and will stop at nothing until she is in her clutches. Maria also learns of a golden crystal globe which Felix uses to visit all types of extraordinary places.

It is also a key. The key to everything...

Red's Wolves by druidrose

Alera lost her mother early in life and was raised by a strict king for a father and the many nursemaids who crossed themselves before touching her. It wasn't until she was of marrying age that she learned why the people feared her. She was canny... like her forest mother. Canny and feared to be fae. The only person besides her father who didn't seem to fear her was the handsome stable boy. He knew what she was and didn't cross himself before letting his hands touch hers longer than needed for helping her to her mount. And on her 18th birthday, neither could deny the bond that dragged them together. But her father had her sold off to make an advantageous match with the neighboring king's sullen and cruel son. Even a kingdom over, the whispers of the canny princess the people feared as fae reached royal ears. But they thought to use her to their advantage...to put fear in their own people's hearts and make them bend the knee. Now with the kingdom at war with the prince she would have married, Alera must save the people who feared her from an unspeakable fate brought to their door by the sullen prince wielding a dark unknown power. -------------------- Cover by Tina Glasneck ©2022 M.Dalto Published to Wattpad 06.01.2022 Completed 03/30/2023

Secret of Moonacre: Hold Me Close by booklover9876e

Often times when I'm alone, my mind conjures up the image of the pale white moon. It's large, so large that it looks as if it could swallow dear little Moonacre in all of it's entirety.

And everything fades to black... ------------------------------------ Maria and Robin seem to be in an endless dance; one day they take a step forward, the next they take a step back.
