Rose Red
Once upon a time...they lived happily ever after.

"I HAVE TWO DAUGHTERS, ONE A FLOWER AS PURE AND WHITE AS THE NEW-FALLEN SNOW AND THE OTHER A ROSE AS RED AND SWEET AS THE FIRES OF PASSION."

Bianca and Rosalinda were the only treasures left to their mother after her husband, the Duke of Monteferro, was murdered. Fleeing to a remote villa in the shadows of the Alps of Northern Italy, she raised her daughters in hiding and swore revenge on the enemy who'd brought her low.

The years passed until one stormy night a stranger appeared from out of the swirling snow, half-frozen and wild, wrapped only in a bearskin. To gentle Bianca he appeared a gallant suitor, to their mother he was the son of an assassin. But to Rosalinda he was the one man who could light the fires of passion and make them burn as sweet and red as her namesake.
