About This Book

The book is set in a land called Zodiaca. Races are determined by astrological sign and certain elements can't intermarry. The book includes six complete romances, all with a Gothic feel similar to that of Victoria Holt, but set in the fantasy world of Zodiaca which has futuristic elements but isn't necessarily set in the future... The romances are about six sisters, separated at birth.
