Cin d'Rella and the Golden Apple (Circle of the Rose Chronicles, Book 2)

While Cin tries to help Coltan with the new reality of his life, a host of surprising complications crop up which take them both on a journey of self-discovery. With the help of a mysterious ally, Cin and her friends embark upon a quest to find a magical object known as the golden apple. It’s said that whoever possesses the apple is granted one wish. Figuring out where this legendary item is located won’t be the hard part. Discovering how to get there and surviving the journey to its resting place may end up costing Cin more than she bargained for.

After tragedy strikes the city of Briardale, a new adversary rises from the ashes and threatens to destroy everything Cin loves. Not only will Cin have to rely on the other Thorns to help her protect the city from this new foe, but she’ll also have to trust her new angelic friends to guide her to her destiny. As if all of this wasn’t enough, Cin must also learn how to balance both duty to the Thorns and love for a man she can no longer view as her enemy.
