Two girls. One forest. A handsome prince. A unicorn. And an endless amount of magic. Meet Mabel and Iris, two completely opposite thirteen-year-olds. They've both managed to make their way into the same forest after a decimating flood to their town. But what could be so special about a New Hampshire forest? Both are bound to find out. After being taken in by the fair enchantress, Morgan, the girls learn a truth that augments all rime and reason they have known their entire life. Worse yet, there's a sorceress after them. And not a nice one at that. Empusa was once a young girl like them, and like any young girl, she had a crush. Prince Cyrus was who young Empusa needed to have. Ever since her beloved prince passed away, Empusa went into a state of misery. Now, Empusa is hungry for power. Not simply owning a grand castle, but inhabiting the core powers of earth itself. All she has left to obtain are the four elements: earth, air, fire, and water. The two last powers of fire and water, however, are just out of her reach. Hugh, the devastatingly dashing and perfectly pure-hearted prince also has his eye on one of the sisters. However, that sister isn't romantic in the slightest- never in the world has she even held hands with a boy. How will Hugh win her favor? Not to mention, the bad-boy prince, André, sees her as well... but how would he win her over Hugh? The Enchanted Forest is a fantastical fiction novel with aspects of action, romance, and bildungsroman genres. It is an ONGOING novel and gives a sample of Irene Rue's work. ---
