Nobleman's son, Todd Ramble, returns home after years abroad and finds himself falling in love with his step-sister, who was now a grown woman. Unfortunately their love is brutally challenged by his tyrannical father.
A romantic gothic-esque friends-to-lovers epic poem with a bittersweet ending.
Excerpt
He'd smiled and teased like a brother,
Then she'd smiled and teased in return,
And from the beginning they'd loved one another
Like siblings, without carnal concern.
Then came the day some five years hence
When returning from months abroad,
Todd happened to wander into a glade
Not far upon Ramble sod.
Framed by autumn's splendor
And bathed in warm sunlight,
She stood alone in a quiet pool
With nary a garment in sight.
In the predawn hours during a solitary ride on her ranch, Montana Freeborn collides with Seth Phoenix, centaur-turned-man and the embodiment of her psychic visions.
