Book excerpt: The sky shall open once more. In an obscure realm, the Kingdom of Ozia lies. Few realize a secret that lurks within, and fewer speak about it openly. Eager for an adventure, Kaia Boken stumbles upon Ozia, unwittingly embroils in an ancient curse that will forever haunt her daughter, and all the daughters in every generation that follows. From Lavinia, who cannot deny her passion for a forbidden man, to Isabel, who binds her loyalty to the people, and Petra, who confronts the truth of her existence, each woman faces a journey that cuts deep into her soul. When the curse’s threat to destroy the kingdom looms, they must abandon their heart’s desire to save the land they call home. But will they? OZIA WHEN THE SKY TORE is an epic tale of family, forgiveness, and the power of love that transcends fate.
