Seren Cottingley comes from a family of great wealth in the capital, but her love for entomology and magic alienates her from society. She must cut away parts of herself to fit in. To stop their daughter from being ostracised, the Cottingleys arrange for her to be married off to a duke. With two dead wives already, Seren's betrothal may as well be a noose.

With the fear of her scientific research being taken from her, as well as her life, Seren flees to the south. She enlists a grumpy mercenary to escort her through the infamous Waldeck Forest while she compiles a beast compendium before marriage locks her into a cage. Leander, who struggles with his foreign heritage, indulges all of her interests and teaches her how to survive in the forest that seems to have claws and teeth. Despite familial expectations laying heavy on her shoulders, Leander offers Seren a reason to never return to the capital.

This cozy, low-stakes book is perfect for romantasy lovers.
