Description
The only thing more dangerous than divining for water is falling in love with the enemy...
Solace is beautiful, strong-willed, and called the water witch by her neighbors. She divines for water in the arid hills of her home-a dangerous pastime across the border, where the king controls access to all the water.
Rhees is brooding, bitter, and hiding a deadly secret. But he's determined to find a way to help the thirsty people of his land-even if it means kidnapping the last living water diviner.
But divining for water is against the law, punishable by death. Should Solace risk everything-including her heart-in a daring race to find water, or flee across the hills at her first chance of escape?
Beauty and the Beast meets The Hunger Games in this thrilling romantic fantasy. Pick up The Lightness of Water by award-winning author Toni Cabell, and be swept into a world of betrayal, mystery, and heart-stomping action.

Person
"Skillfully plotted books packed full of magic, mayhem, and a plethora of dark secrets..." (The Wishing Shelf). An award-winning fantasy author, Toni writes the "perfect coming-of-age tale with a magical twist." (Indies Today). Her books feature strong female protagonists, page-turning plots, and relatable characters that spring off the page. Toni makes her home in a small village along the shores of Lake Michigan with her handsome husband and grumpy miniature schnauzer. A lifelong insomniac, she often writes in the middle of the night, which may explain her wild plot twists and unforgettable characters.
