Enchantress Aurora Firenze broke the law to save lives, and she has no regrets. Except one. Her law-breaking habit means she can never be with the man she loves. And then he shows up—Edmund Rallis, practically the prince of the territory—carrying proof of one of her crimes. He destroys the evidence as only a mage with his power can. In return, he demands she attend the ball of the season at his side.

Just like that, Aurora's quiet life vanishes in a puff of glitter. After all, enchantresses are the celebrity darlings of the Republic, and the spotlight will be unending.

Eight months ago, Edmund thought love at first sight was trash talk. Then he met Aurora, and she shined a light in his dark heart for the sweetest nights he's ever known, but when he let down his guard, his enchantress slipped away. This time, he'll keep track of her. Especially when a deadly enemy is ripping apart the magic bond that permeates the land of Rallis Territory.

Only a mage like Edmund can break the bond. Naturally, he's the prime suspect. Aurora becomes his only ally, knowing he's innocent.

But in the race to uncover the enemy, her secrets keep them apart. Can they trust each other enough to stop a dangerous foe? And if Edmund finds out her secrets, will he still want his enchantress's heart?
