Cruel Enchantment — Anya Bast

EVEN THE MOST POWERFUL HANDS NEED A DELICATE TOUCH…

Emmaline Gallagher is a master of wielding personal glamour. As a free fae who lives among humans, she must hide her true self at all times as she works undercover within the powerful Phaendir -- for if certain factions within the Phaendir gain control, the fae will be wiped from existence. Now, an object of fae power lies within a locked ancient box. And there is only one fae who can forge the key.

Known as “the Blacksmith” Aeric O'Malley can create or destroy almost anything with his forging skills. Emmaline has come to him in need, but he and Emmaline have a past -- and he has spent centuries wanting to take revenge on her for her transgressions. But now that he has her within his grasp, something about her keeps him from exacting his vengeance -- or is it merely her glamour blinding him?

Trapped by fate, Emmaline must hope that she can reach Aeric's furious heart before it's too late….
