Orabelle: Book 1 of The Keepers of Imbria series

Forced to take power from her dying mother who was ravaged by a mysterious illness, Orabelle became the youngest Keeper to ever wield the power of an element and become Queen of Lehar. Her father, a former element Keeper himself, is desperate to hold onto power and will use any means necessary to maintain his hold over Imbria and quell his eldest daughter's growing strength. He betroths her to the Keeper of Fire, an ambitious man whom he hopes will be able to control her and to restrain her volatile nature. Orabelle's rebellion against the impending marriage leads to a shocking and brutal murder that changes Imbria forever and threatens to pull the four realms into chaos and war.

Torn between her quest for vengeance and her duty to her people and to her family, she turns to a banished islander for help. Together they face not only the looming possibility of war with the other realms, but also an ancient evil that has resurfaced to wreak havoc across Imbria and whose existence seems to be intertwined with her own. Orabelle begins to learn that the answers to saving her future may lie in the past, and that betrayal extends beyond the boundaries of family and allies.

Will she be able to find the answers she needs to save her kingdom and herself and fulfill the fabled prophecy of the Solvrei? Or will the lies and treachery of the past destroy her hope for the future?
