An Enchantment of Ravens
Isobel paints magic into her fae clients’ portraits without revealing mortal sorrow—until she paints regret into the Autumn Prince’s eyes.

About This Book
In the enchanting realm of Whimsy, where humans and the Fair Folk coexist, Isobel is a gifted portrait artist renowned for capturing the essence of her subjects. The Fair Folk, immortal beings incapable of creating art themselves, eagerly seek her talents, exchanging valuable enchantments for her paintings. One day, Rook, the enigmatic Autumn Prince, commissions a portrait from Isobel. In a moment of artistic inspiration, she paints a hint of mortal sorrow in his eyes—a subtle yet profound emotion that could expose his vulnerability. This act inadvertently breaches the strict laws of the Fair Folk, leading to Isobel's abduction to face a perilous trial in the heart of the Autumnlands.
As Isobel and Rook journey through the treacherous faerie territories, they encounter formidable challenges, including the relentless Wild Hunt and the malevolent Alder King. Their alliance, initially forged out of necessity, deepens into a complex bond, blurring the lines between captor and captive. The tension escalates as they confront the harsh realities of the faerie courts, where love between a human and a fae is a forbidden transgression punishable by death. Isobel's artistic prowess becomes both a beacon of hope and a source of peril, as she navigates the intricate and dangerous politics of the immortal courts.
