“The key, Aidan! You must give us the key!”
More than a hundred guests have taken over Aidan’s little rose-covered cottage, throwing her peaceful life into frightening chaos. These deceitful servants of the Dark Prince are not ordinary people – and they have forced her to give them the key to her heart.
A lonely orphan raised in poverty and abuse, Aidan yearns for love. But Unloved and Unwanted and their fellow servants have been sent by their Master to torment her until the very moment she dies.
Helplessly trapped, Aidan has no power to fight her enemies as they destroy all her hopes and dreams. She is desperate to escape from them – and to find The One Who Will Love Her Forever.
Then she has a brief but life-changing encounter with a mysterious Knight who gives her a tiny white rose that has miraculous powers.
Aidan soon realizes this rose is her only hope of freedom.
