Read The Golden Apple Online

Authors: Michelle Diener

The Golden Apple (25 page)

She suddenly saw what she was looking for in his eyes. Saw everything she needed.

She let her hand slip down, over his collarbone to his heart. Felt it race beneath her palm.

“I love you, too.” He bent his head to whisper in her ear, and pulled her even closer.

She lay quiet in his arms.

They had challenges ahead. So much was unresolved or still a mystery. And the stakes were higher than she ever could have imagined.

But lying under the trees of the forest, in the wild heart of Middleland, she knew whatever lay ahead, she and Rane would face it together.

And it would be all right.

Praise for Mistress of the Wind

 

“Diener’s adaptation retains the familiar elements of the original, echoing both the structure and spirit of the classic, but true to form, she puts her own spin both the plot and the narrative, crafting an intricately alluring tale of self-sacrifice, steadfast devotion and enduring love.”

Flashlight Commentary

 

“The story is fast-paced and never boring, the world a beauty and Michelle’s writing so wonderfully detailed that I felt I was with Bjorn and Astrid on their journey.

Book Bird Reviews

 

“Author Michelle Diener takes this re-telling to another level. She doesn’t restrict herself to an East of the Sun, West of the moon retelling. Instead we are also given parts reminiscent of Psyche’s quest. Which just allowed for a much richer story.”
