Secrets of Thorn Manor

Elizabeth Scrivener finally began to settle into her new life with the sorcerer Nathaniel Thorn, and with the return of their familiar, Silas, the eyes of curious, rumor-hungry journalists once again turned towards the city's most powerful sorcerer and the librarian who stole his heart. But something strange is happening in Thorn Manor; the manor's magical traps, which are supposed to keep their home safe, have begun to malfunction, trapping the residents inside. This occurring precisely as Nathaniel and Elizabeth grow closer is no mere coincidence.

Completely cut off from the outside world, Elizabeth, Nathaniel, and Silas – along with their new maid, Mercy – must work together to discover the source of the magic behind the malfunctioning traps, and quickly, before they are due to host the city's annual Midwinter Ball.

This is no easy task, in a house brimming with unexpected secrets, while Elizabeth cannot stop dreaming of living in love and peace with Nathaniel.

But when it becomes clear that the manor, influenced by the magic of Nathaniel's ancestors, demands a price for its obedience, Elizabeth and Nathaniel will have to rely on the bond between them as never before to set things right.
