A new title for Simon Pulse's 'Once Upon a Time' series based on the unusual and stirring Grimm tale 'The White Bride and the Black Bride'.
When Rose's mother dies suddenly, Rose's only comfort is the exquisite rose garden she left behind. The flowers remind her that love outlasts all grief. But these feelings are bitterly tested when Rose's father remarries and his greedy wife Ombrine and her daughter Desiree move into his estate. They stop at nothing to destroy Rose, who has captured the heart of the darkly handsome King Jean-Marc.
When, in a rage, Ombrine tears out Rose's beloved garden, she loses the will to live. Desiree even dresses up like Rose, fooling the king into marrying her instead of her step-sister. But the king realises something is amiss with his new bride. And Rose regains her hope when a tiny blossom pokes through the ravaged soil...
