Ever since Claire was a little girl, she dreamed about travelling the world with her father.
Just after graduating high school, she planned to do exactly that. But when her father unexpectedly comes home with a new wife and stepchildren, Claire's dreams are put on hold.
And that's not the worst part.
When Claire's father dies suddenly, and her new stepfamily drags her along on a move to northern Europe, not only are Claire's dreams lost forever, but everything she's ever known is ripped away from her too.
She's completely alone in a foreign country, in a town where her "stepfamily" now treat her as a servant. Claire's life will never return to normal, but who knows--a bit of magic can take you a long way.
