The Blacksmith's Daughter

Product Description As his thirtieth birthday looms, King Austyn must marry or forfeit his throne to his first cousin, the diabolical Lord Wolftraap. Marcelline, the eldest of the Blacksmith's daughters and keeper of the family forge, reluctantly competes for the king's hand, for with it, comes a prize with the power to save her dying sister's life. A king in need of marriage and a maiden in need of a miracle will do whatever it takes to preserve the well being of the people they love.
