About This Book
Reach for this book when your teenager is feeling the mounting pressure of adult responsibilities or struggling to protect their younger siblings while navigating their own path to independence. Set in a lush, folklore-rich Transylvania, the story follows Jena, a young woman balancing the care of her sisters and home during her father's illness with the allure of a secret, magical kingdom. It beautifully explores themes of family loyalty, the courage to trust one's intuition, and the bittersweet transition into adulthood. While it features a magical portal and dancing fey, the heart of the story is deeply grounded in the emotional resilience required to stand up against controlling family members. It is an ideal choice for readers aged 12 and up who appreciate atmospheric storytelling and strong, capable female leads.
