A Talent Within - Suzanne Lenoir - Bog

Evelyne, born into nobility, and Annika, a peasant girl with a deadly secret, struggle to change their destinies in Valmora, a medieval world controlled by religion, magic, and men. If only she'd been born a boy, Evelyne could fight with her brothers and fulfill her dreams of glory. Instead, her father has arranged her marriage. Annika knows she's different. She has gifts the Valmorans call talents, and she's waited too long to turn herself over to the Temple for training. If she tells anyone now, she will burn as a heretic. Their blossoming love changes everything. Both are forced to confront who they are when saving an innocent life exposes Annika's talent and she's held prisoner by the unforgiving Temple Paladin. Saving Annika will cost Evelyne all she's ever known, but her sacrifice may lead them on a path to love and a destiny that will change Valmora forever.
