In a world where marriage means surrendering your magic, one woman dares to dream of something more.
Beatrice Clayborn has a secret.
She's a talented sorceress who dreams of becoming a powerful Magus. But in her society, women are expected to marry—and marriage means wearing a collar that suppresses their magical abilities.
With her family facing financial ruin, Beatrice is expected to secure a wealthy husband during Bargaining Season.
There's just one problem.
Beatrice refuses to give up her magic.
When she discovers a mysterious grimoire that could unlock her future, she believes she's finally found a way to escape society's expectations.
But her plans become complicated when she crosses paths with the charming and wealthy Ianthe Lavan.
As their attraction grows, Beatrice faces an impossible choice: pursue the magical future she's always dreamed of or risk everything for a love she never expected.
In a world of glittering ballrooms, secret spells, dangerous bargains, and forbidden desires, Beatrice must discover whether she can have both love and freedom.
