The seven houses

Evelyn Dover lives a content and comfortable life with her parents in Sisronia, a small village situated in the easternmost point of the realm of Tarugon. Until, one fateful night, her cottage is invaded by intruders claiming she's in fact Evelyn Thorne, the sole heir to the House of Thorne, one of the seven mythical Houses of Tarugon, each possessing an extraordinary power. With her parents dead, and no other Thorne alive, Evelyn must take her late father's place as Head of Thorne House and attempt to navigate the male-dominated world of these seven Houses while the wellbeing and happiness of the citizens of Tarugon is thrust upon her shoulders.
Evelyn learns that her parent's untimely deaths weren't an accident, but a terrible murder by unknown hands, driven by a want for power. Now, already under the vengeful eye of those who do not wish to see a woman succeed, she must learn to harness her powers, whilst solving the mystery of her parent's deaths before others realize that she's the most powerful of them all.
