A new game of danger and desire is beginning. Ready or not…
When a mysterious invitation draws Genevieve Grimm to a palace in Italy, she expects magic and secrets, maybe even a ball.
She doesn’t expect the owner’s handsome son to slam the door in her face.
Rowin Silver is tall and dark and exceptionally rude. Invitation or no, he tells her to leave and never come back.
But Genevieve has never followed orders, especially from arrogant rich boys. She slips inside… and immediately realises her mistake.
Rowin and his family are caught in a deadly game. There can be only one winner. The others are dragged away to Hell… until the contest begins again.
Now Genevieve must join the hunt. And her only hope of survival is an alliance with Rowin. Even worse, to work together they must convince the others they’re in love.
As they race through a labyrinth of gold and marble, their instant loathing turns to irresistible attraction. Can Genevieve evade Rowin’s ruthless family, uncover the devilish secrets of the game and end it forever?
Packed with deadly intrigue and spicy romance, Enchantra will transport you to a world of feisty heroines and morally gray love interests, fake dating, forbidden desire and family secrets. If you love books by Rebecca Yarros, Carissa Broadbent and Lauren Roberts, prepare to discover your new romantasy obsession.

Omg omg omg! What a book. I loved the first book in this series Phantasma. It was the first fantasy book in a while that really had me hooked and book 2 was as good.
The story was fun and deadly from start to finish. Vivi is a strong female character who doesn’t need anyone to save her. She doesn’t take no for an answer and she believes in herself. I love her strength and confidence.
Kaylie is exceptional at world building. The Silver estate and how it changed for the games was fascinating. Kaylie’s description is so vivid I felt like I not only knew the labyrinth in the garden but that I had been there myself.
Rowin and his siblings were a blast. As one of 6 siblings (all brothers) I get the big family dynamics. loved Ellin and Sevin the most. I loved how Ellin and Vivis relationship unfolded. Being the only girl is tough and I really connected with Ellin on that front.
This was everything I want from a gothic fantasy romance book and more!
I switched between the audio and the ebook version of this book and the narration on the audio was fantastic. I found myself listening more and more even though it is slower than I read because I just loved listening to the narration!
Thank you to Second Sky for my copies of this book and for letting me take part in this tour.
