About the book

Proper Regency ladies are not supposed to become magicians—but Miss Abigail Wilder is far from proper.

The marriageable young ladies of London are dying mysteriously, and Abigail Wilder intends to discover why. Abigail’s father, the Lord Sorcier of England, believes that a dark lord of faerie is involved. But while Abigail is willing to match her magic against Lord Longshadow, neither her father nor high society believes that she is capable of doing so.

Thankfully, Abigail is not the only one investigating the terrible events. Mercy, a street rat and self-taught magician, insists on joining Abigail in unraveling the mystery. Mercy is unpredictable, and her magic is strange and foreboding—but the greatest danger she poses may well be to Abigail’s heart. 

A queer romantic faerie tale of defiant hope and love against all odds, set in Olivia Atwater’s enchanting version of Regency England.

    I loved the queer lovestory, the fairy folklore, the way the dead have their own companion who take them through faerie to the other side. What a nice thought. We also got to meet Mr Jubilee and Ephemia again and of course Lady Hollowvale, aka Other Mom. A nice ending for this trilogy

    I do have to admit that Abigail didn't capture me as quickly as a protagonist the way Dora or Effie did. Once she managed to cast her spell on me, I fell for her just as hard though. I really enjoyed this book and third installment of Olivia Atwater's Regency Faerie Tales series. I especially loved the magical midnight strolls through Kensington Gardens as well as the very special dresses the female leads wear to a ball towards the end of the book. Cute and whimsical just like book 1 and 2 of the series. I am looking forward to reading more about the Wilder family.
