“Can Wildrose protect us from a force as wicked as Claude? From its own counter magic? . . . They’re sister magicks, Remy."
Remy Dauphin is ready to start over. But starting over isn't as easy as he thought.
When he returns home from working abroad, problems abound.
His older brother, Claude, is a drunk lech. His parents are aging rapidly, and there's a question of inheritance, employment, and old wounds. Not to mention the insistent grimoire hounding him for attention.
Disaster strikes, and Remy's world grinds to a halt. He's left standing in the ashes with one thing: a magical manor.
New love, new family, and new life await Remy. Wildrose is the answer, but no good magic stands alone. While Remy embarks on a magical mission of love and change, the counter magic stirs.
Can Remy face the darkness and survive? Or does evil truly triumph over good?
WILDROSE is the fifth novel in the Historical Collection. This exhilarating tale of magic and family will sweep you back to the world of Alkarra.

What an enjoyable ride! It was so much fun to see how Wildrose came to be. And to get to know the family and the friends who lived next door. Also, to find out about the complementary house, Briarrose. The conflict that was constant between the two brothers because of Claude’s misconceptions and dark ways caused much turmoil for the families involved. The eternal struggle between good and evil is seen throughout this story. It was truly a pleasure to see the Dauphin family and their growth and service through Wildrose. This book should be read and you will enjoy the magic.
A movie in a book, Katie's delicious storytelling is vivid and evoking. Painting wild and thought prevoking magic systems that play more than support roles for me. This novel is a great foray into Alkarra, and can be read without spoilers. In the audiobook Katie's narration brings the inhabitants of this book to life, becoming more than just words, they are magic.
