Publisher's Synopsis
She was given a second chance to live a peaceful life.
She should have guessed the world wouldn't be so kind.
With her vengeance complete, enchantress Callista has settled into a quiet life. Her routine is shattered when a visitor arrives-the brother she left to die is alive.
Callista's joy is short-lived. A new king has been crowned, but not everyone is pleased, including a lord who needs a witch for his plans. To save her brother's life, Callista switches places with the king's prospective bride using the dark magic she swore to abandon.
But neither Callista nor her villainous master accounted for the king's best friend, Vallyn Drake, seeing through her disguise. He can't prove Callista isn't who she claims to be, but the secretly half-fae general is determined to uncover who she is and what she's plotting...
If only he weren't so drawn to her.
As Callista and Vallyn dance around mutual suspicion and fascination, the true villains grow impatient. Vallyn swore to protect the king with his life. But if Callista doesn't kill the king, she may lose her brother a second time.
An enemies-to-lovers loose reimagining of The Goose Girl. This book is a direct sequel to A Fated Quest (The Miraveld Chronicles book 3).
