Emerald House Rising

Jean is the daughter and only child of Collas the Gemcutter, jeweler to the nobility and supplier of magical gems and amulets. Jena has learned everything her father can teach her, and has created some beautiful objects of her own—but as a girl, she is expected to marry, not carry on her father's business. When Lord Morgan, a mysterious noble from the king's court, realizes that Jena has magical abilities, her life changes forever. The two must work as partners if they are to avert a disastrous war among the ruling families.
