At eighteen, Adria Lovett can think only of making her come-out and finding the love of her life. Until, scant weeks before leaving for London, her world crumbles around her, pitching her into a situation shockingly contrary to anything she has ever known. And yet, far from London, Adria finds herself surrounded by a bevy of young men-though none of them what she envisioned when dreaming of her future.
There is Dudley Greystoke, who should be Sir Dudley but is not; Chandler Satterthwaite, who has strayed far from the fold of his father, the vicar; the supposedly reliable Ned Steadman, son of the local squire; Garth Maddox, son of a gamekeeper, who calls himself Myrddin, the Welsh name for Merlin. And Drake Kincade, son of a wealthy merchant-the Drake Kincade known to many as "the Devil's Spawn, " who has fled to the country to escape a bride selected by his father.
And then there is Dudley Greystoke's twin sister, Daphne, a young woman as willful as she is beautiful, who plunges Adria into the world of witchcraft-a world already complicated by a barrage of evil deeds ranging from nasty pranks to murder. Grimoires, spells, devil-worship, rape, and murder-not at all the Season Adria dreamed of.
