When Aria returns to the Fair Realm to attend a ball at the Salamander castle, it isn’t long before things take a turn for the deadly.
With her father’s home in ashes and her newfound family reduced to dust, Aria finds herself King Auberon’s captive once more. Deep within the mountains that border the Celeste Kingdom, Aria is powerless to fight back, her newly-discovered abilities suppressed by the weight of the rock that surrounds her. But when a Celeste guard whispers about rebellion and promises to help her escape, Aria is desperate to trust him.
Crown Prince Xander returns home to the Gnome castle, laden with grief for his brother and father, and dreading the day he will be crowned king. Preparations are underway for his marriage and coronation, but thoughts of the girl he betrayed trouble him day and night. Until the morning of his wedding, when a note arrives that Aria has been taken by Auberon once more, and Xander is forced to choose between his life of duty and obedience, and what he believes is right.

Summer of New Love by Nola Li Barr
Genre: Young Adult Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG
Newly graduated from high school with her whole world in front of her, Isabella has everything she could ever ask for until she meets Sebastian.
A boy whose life is falling apart before his eyes.
A boy who is not in high society and, therefore, her mother would never approve.
A boy who seems to put her at ease like no one else has ever done.
The Skyline Mansion series introduced Isabella and Sebastian in their late twenties after they had drifted apart, but once upon a time, they were perfect for each other.
Summer of New Love is a novella companion of the Skyline Mansion series. It ventures a look into how a girl who has everything and a boy who has lost everything can find common ground in love.
Why did you write this book?
Isabella is one of my favorite characters and a couple of years ago I wanted to get to know her and Sebastian a bit better. I tried to jot down characteristics of who they might be but I couldn’t figure out what made them tick. So I started writing a story to help me understand them better.
What is your favorite genre to read?
Romance. I love this genre as I can escape into a happily ever after.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
Bridget Jones and Becky Brandon from the Shopaholic series. I love how vibrant and versatile their characters are and they make me laugh.
What are you working on at the moment?
I’m currently working on the last book in the Skyline Mansion series.
What books will we see from you in coming months?
I plan on finishing the fourth book in Skyline Mansion, two short stories to finish out the Wilkens siblings, and two novellas that also feature characters from the Skyline Mansion series.
