Forgotten — Barb Hendee

In Forgotten, a young woman faces darkness and magic to protect those she cares for.

Elena's adventures begin when she finds herself living as mistress to Lord Stefan Korbori, who is trapped inside his manor by the curse of an undead sorcerer. He begins sinking into madness, endlessly wandering the same rooms and passages.

Willing to do almost anything to save him, Elena undertakes a journey upriver.

In seeking a cure and a way to release Stefan from the curse, Elena must accept the help of Cooper, a handsome and stoic barge master. This sets her on a new path as she battles sorcerers, curses, murderous charlatans, ghosts and demi-gods from across the veil between the mortal world and that of the Fay spirits.

In addition, Elena becomes torn between her loves for two very different men, both who wish to protect her in their differing ways and to possess her.

Forgotten contains four connected novellas--each continuing where the previous one ends:

The Forgotten Lord
The Forgotten Mistress
The Forgotten Village
The Forgotten Daughter
