  A Walk in the Dark by Arthur C. Clarke - Fear and misfortune stalk the strange byways of a lonely planet 
  Robert Armstrong had walked just over two miles, as far as he could judge, when his torch failed. He stood still for a moment, unable to believe that such a misfortune could really have befallen him. Then, half maddened with rage, he hurled the useless instrument away. It landed somewhere in the darkness, disturbing the silence of this little world. A metallic echo came ringing back from the low hills. Then all was quiet again. 
  This, thought Armstrong, was the ultimate misfortune. Nothing more could happen to him now. He was even able to laugh bitterly at his luck and resolved never again to imagine that the fickle goddess had ever favored him.

  Beneath the chandeliers of the gilded ballroom in Veridia, where florists craft bouquets of midnight roses and shadowed dukes prowl with secrets etched in velvet, artisan Lila captivates Duke Harlan, a noble haunted by a lineage of cursed thorns. Their forbidden dance, spun in petal vows and shadowed steps, ignites a scandal that could wilt the court's fragile alliances or cultivate a garden of redemption. As they steal moments in hidden arbors and rose-laced alcoves, stalked by gossip weavers and thorned rivals, Lila's floral alchemy blends with Harlan's ducal enigma, revealing a midnight rose prophecy of thornless union. When a poisoned petal unleashes spectral blooms, they must waltz through the shadows to prune the curse. In the twirl of crimson petals, where every thorn pricks with desire and every waltz echoes forbidden longing, their romance becomes the bloom that defies the night's decree.
