In this spellbinding parable, Boyce lays bare the agonizing path toward healing that comes after an intense and heartbreaking trauma.

Follow a fierce warrior queen as she attempts to heal from the betrayal that nearly killed her. With her fortress burning and her body broken, she descends into the depths of an enchanted mountainside—to the land of goddesses, darkness, and magic.

When she steps into the mountain, she’s after a legendary weapon that’s said to defeat any foe. In the darkness, however, she finds something much more powerful.

Boyce wrote this deeply symbolic novella as a means to heal from her own life-shattering pain. She shares it with you now in the hopes that you, too, may find your way back to the sunlight… and to your own starlit summer.
