Once upon a time, I had known nothing about my family. But then I went to Europe and discovered who I really was. And my new life...well, it was like something right out of a fairy tale. I was a member of the royal family of Dobrenica, a tiny, obscure European country with some very unusual attributes. Like magic. And ghosts. And vampires.

But for the first time in my life I was truly happy. I was engaged to be married to the heir apparent to the throne, and we were in love. So my mood was high as I walked under the triumphal arch in the center of the capital city and passed the off little painting of a door that had intrigued me ever since I first came to Dobrenica.

It was rendered so realistically that on first glance it seemed three dimensional, and I always ran my fingers over the amazing painting as I passed. But this time, my fingers closed on an actual cold metal doorknob, and the door swung inward, revealing a sun-drenched landscape and a teenage girl with honey-colored braids.

As I stepped over the magical threshold, she spoke.

"You are called to guide the child Aurelie,"she said. "But that is only half your task: to save Dobrenica, you must bring her here."

And with that, she disappeared, leaving me floating like a spirit in a strange world, two hundred years in the past.

Industry Reviews

Praise for the Dobrenica series: "It's a delightful romp, with just enough loose ends to leave some hope that the doomed romance might not be so doomed at all." â Locus

"Humor and rapier-sharp wit...a lively heroine, mysterious ghosts, and a complex and intricate plot." â Publishers Weekly

"Highly recommended for all fantasy and general-fiction collections, as the potential readership is wide, from urban-fantasy readers looking for something lighter but still complex to young women who grew up reading the Princess Diaries series." â Booklist

"Sherwood Smith skillfully builds tension almost imperceptibly, and keeps the reader off balance and guessing until the final page." â Fresh Fiction

"From the very first page, I was swept into the story." --Night Owl Reviews

"Sherwood Smith is a world-building genius.... The detail didn't just flesh out the world; it also made the characters and their motivations much more comprehensible." --Fantasy Works
