The Guarded Heart (abridged)

(Abridged version)

Once upon a time in the world of Eoroe, on the continent of Bryten...

Seven years ago, a tragic misunderstanding broke Princess Aurora's heart.

Now Aurora lives a half-life: alive on the outside, but dead on the inside. Can the love of one of her new Guards draw the sad princess out of the darkness she's lived in for so long? Will they be allowed to be together?

Martin knows that, as a commoner, he can't marry the Princess, no matter how much he loves her. Instead, he exists on dreams of the life they could've had, while doing his best to protect her.

Then one day, everything changes.

Two hearts used to dark despair are given one more chance at the sunshine and laughter of true love.

But in the shadows lurk threats to their love... And their lives.

Set in the fantasy world of Eoroe, the Bryten series takes place in a world of princesses and dukes, lanterns and carriages, swords and ballgowns. An overarching villainous plot runs through the series, so they are best read in order, but each book contains one complete love story and a happily ever after ending.

This abridged ebook contains condensed forms of all four ebooks that make up The Guarded Heart.
