By Magic Beguiled

From New York Times and USA Today Bestselling, RITA® Award-winning author Maggie Shayne.

A hidden world. A stolen painting. A love written in magic.

"Maggie Shayne delivers romance with sweeping intensity and bewitching passion." -Jayne Ann Krentz, #1 New York Times bestselling author

As a child, Adam escaped his father's cruelty in the forest near their home. One day, he crawled through a hidden tunnel and emerged into another world-a place of crystal pools, enchanted light, and a beautiful fairy child who danced in the water.

It was only imagination...

Or so he believes-until years later, when he discovers a painting of that very glade. The same shimmering pool. The same mysterious girl. The impossible place he's never been able to forget.

The painting becomes his most treasured possession.

Brigit has always known she was different. After a fire destroyed the orphanage where she lived, she survived on the streets with only Raze-the man who saved her-and a strange book left with her as a baby. Gifted with the ability to paint anything she sees with perfect precision, Brigit uses her talent to keep them alive.

Until the wrong people notice.

When Raze is kidnapped, Brigit is given an impossible choice. To save him, she must get close to Adam, copy his painting, and steal the original for the man who holds Raze's life in his hands.

But the painting is more than art.

It is the key to Brigit's lost past, her connection to the enchanted world Adam once stumbled into, and a message left by a twin sister she never knew existed-one that points the way to her destiny.

As magic awakens and danger closes in, Adam and Brigit are drawn together by forces older and stronger than either of them understands...forces that could unite their hearts-or tear their worlds apart.

Fans of films like The Huntsman will devour this spellbinding romantic fantasy.
