Crown of Ivy

the long version

A curse lurks in the waves lapping on the shores of Crete. When an opportunity to break it arises, the princess Ariadne is faced with a choice: betray her family and her people, or continue to suffer. She takes a hopeful chance — and loses everything. Abandoned on a strange island, she meets a mysterious stranger who just might have the key to a brighter future. But he's keeping secrets, and Ariadne must decide if she can afford to take another risk.
