title: Odette
author: Wyman, L.K.
description: It is said that the Swan is the symbol of grace, love, and beauty; a name and an expectation inherited by the young princess Odette, as termed appropriately in spirit of her mother, the Swan Queen. However, with the title for young Odette comes more attention than she knows how to handle, overwhelming fascination, and tragic misfortune in the form of a malicious sorcerer, Rothbart; a madman both ravenous for power and revenge against the royal family. Unknowingly connected by a past of conflict and banishment, in the years of Odette’s aging, she can never shake the feeling that she’s been followed all her life. Somewhere a looming figure, a shadow, sits around every corner, waiting for the opportune moment to close in on her, and she isn’t the only one who can sense it. Now set to marry her betrothed, Gabriel, together they must raise a kingdoms delicate balance, questioning if love can justly conquer all the evils they fear and feel. Then, on the day of their wedding, are thrown into a furious match against time and enchantment. In a spellbinding tale of murder, secrecy, and a wicked curse, plunge into the retelling of Swan Lake. A story set to lift the readers heart like a feather, while experiencing the suspense, and perilous journey ahead in L.K. Wyman’s first fairy tale retelling, Odette.
