Publisher's Summary

Traditions are harmless, until they threaten your freedom….

Helen Brown’s house is filled to the brim with flowers from suitors, but she couldn’t care less about the illiterate boys in her town. When a wealthy, but simpleminded, suitor proposes, she gladly refuses him, though local tradition demands she accept any eligible match. She ignores the town’s threats of being ostracized, and tries to pretend nothing has changed. However, she quickly realizes she is losing all the things she loves: dancing at the festivals, teaching the town children to read, and even her sister’s happiness. 

In an attempt to ward off more suitors and prove she is too clever to marry, Helen issues a challenge: Anyone can win her hand if they bring her a riddle she can’t answer. When an arrogant and scorned suitor brings her just such a riddle, she must do all she can to find the answer, swallow her pride and marry, or be outcast from her home once and for all.

Book three in the Legends of Draven series, this exciting next chapter coincides with book one: Growing Amaranth.
