Trapped in the gilded cage of the chateau Lac d'Or, Catherine attempts to escape only to be cast into a fresh hell from which release means being sent on a treacherous journey she could never imagine.

Went to this book signing yesterday. Listened to the author read a portion and get a book signed. Really good story of a 17th century girl beginning life with a chosen Duke. As the author says she gets chased up a tree and has lots of rocks thrown at her. Good read.

What a great day! My first novel is listed on Litsy! I think one of the reasons I love Catherine is because she loves books the way I do, and has from a very young age. Of course, I'm a real person and she's a fictional character, but why let that stand in the way of friendship?
