BOOK TWO IN A TWO-PART SERIES FROM THE DARK WOODS (BOTH PARTS MUST BE READ FOR COMPLETE STORY RESOLUTION)
Picking up where its prequel left off, the story finds Elle's household sinking rapidly into madness, and Jack learning of a possible way to break Molly's curse and free himself of its consequences forever.
To lonely Elle, the only remaining servant of the Levier house, existence itself seems a dreary burden, until an encounter with magic offers her a glimpse of an outside world beyond her wildest dreams. Such an encounter has a price, however; for the shadow of Madame Levier threatens Elle's happiness, and even her very existence.
As for Jack, time is running out. Trapped between the consequences of Molly's curse and the possibility of losing everything he now possesses by her magic, he'll do anything to escapeâ€"even if it means manipulating a magical being whose powers are meant for another.
From fairy pools and forbidden flames, to circuses and sailors' lairs, the magic of a human fairy and the opulence of three grand balls set the stage for the story's end â€"one in which a beautiful gown alone may not be enough to conquer a throne, and the possession of magic demands more than merely the power to control it.
