Healer and Witch

In 16th century France, one girl's gift for healing may be the greatest magic of all—or the reason she's hunted.

Fifteen-year-old Sylvie, her mother, and her grandmother are beloved, trusted healers in their French village. But some whisper that Sylvie and her grand-mère aren't just adept with herbs and medicines. That they're a bit magical. Even . . . witchy?

After her grandmother dies and an attempt to use magic to heal her mother's grief turns tragic, Sylvie leaves her village, desperate to find someone who can teach her to use her powers. But the journey will expose her to unexpected alliances, powerful temptations, political intrigue, new friends, new enemies  . . . and love.
