FIRST, SHE FELL INTO A MAGICAL PORTAL. AND THEN SHE FELL FOR HIM.
Nora Fischer has always been clever.
But that doesn’t stop her accidentally falling into a portal to another world.
Here, she’s finds glamour, endless parties, rivers of fairy wine – and then there’s the beautifully mysterious Raclin.
What Nora doesn’t yet realise is that she's bewitched. Her new friends are keeping her prisoner under Raclin and his family’s orders – even tricking her into agreeing to marry him.
The only way to escape is befriending broody, stand-offish magician Aruendiel.
But Raclin will fight to keep Nora. Only if she can persuade Aruendiel to teach her real magic, might she be able to return home.
Except, as she finds herself getting closer to Aruendiel, she wonders if leaving is really what she wants . . .
