Calia's Needle (The Book of Roses #5)

The Farren Vale, the greatest tapestry ever woven, is being remade. Fresh from a humble apprenticeship, Calia is overwhelmed when the queen selects her to work as a weaver on the project. Yet as opportunity beckons her into the world of courtly life, she crosses paths with Anastasia Fiala, the ruthless and manipulative artist in charge of the tapestry. Competing for the queen's favour, a bitter rivalry flares between the two women that threatens to undermine both the Farren Vale and the royal household beyond. With her friends caught in the crossfire and Anastasia's overbearing mother vying for influence, Calia must find a way to reconcile her talents with the unforgiving reality of life as a royal artisan–or face heartbreaking consequences.

Can the goodness of Calia's spirit win out over the hard hearts around her, or is she destined to join them in their merciless game?
