A few short weeks ago, I knew exactly who I was: Ava Dawson, a woman with a surprising magical ability, a daughter, a friend, and invisible to men. Now? Everything has changed. The only family I've ever known? Betrayed me. My best friend lives clear across the city, and I seem to have the favor of four gorgeous, reluctant incubi. That complicates things. Also, I have this powerful magic coursing through my veins: the power of the mythical isle of Avalon. It's real, I promise - I feel it every day. If I don't learn how to control it, I might end up hurting the people closest to me.

Dawn Oliver - daughter of theater royalty, talented in her own right, and, according to the internet...a complete and total fraud. All she wants is a fair chance to prove herself - no nepotism, no social media campaigns, no sponsors. Just pure talent, which she has in spades, if she can just get someone to believe in her. The way Patrick Bell does.

Una historia contada a dos voces: la de Laura, editora, soñadora, enamorada de los libros y de las grandes historias de los clásicos. Un espíritu libre que añora un amor que supere los límites del entendimiento; y la de Celia, que aterriza en estas páginas rota, tratando de poner orden en su vida sin saber bien cómo.

The chemistry between Stephen Foster and Nubia Perry is an undeniable fact. The handsome, dynamic former rugby star is used to getting who he wants with minimal effort, but Nubia's steadfast refusal to acquiesce - while also making it clear that she's equally interested in him - is compelling enough to keep his attention firmly planted on her. Even once it's clear that Nubia's polished façade is something she puts on for the public, to hide the scarred, vulnerable woman underneath, Stephen persists. He isn't intimated by the model-turned-mogul's aggressive personality.
