The Magician’s Witch

Book one of The Magician’s Witch Trilogy

Persia 1850

Before he haunted the Paris Opera House, Erik was a prodigy trapped in the opulent and treacherous court of 19th-century Persia, bound to serve the Shah’s formidable mother as both architect—and executioner. Feared for the unnatural power of his voice and valued only for his brilliance, he survives by making himself indispensable.

Eilis never intended to alter anyone’s destiny—least of all his. A modern witch bound by strict magical laws that forbid meddling with fate, she is abducted through time and delivered to the Persian court as a gift for the Shah. There she discovers that the masked foreign architect who rescues her is not merely a court curiosity, but a man history has already condemned.

As palace intrigue tightens and the Shah’s interest in Eilis grows dangerous, she begins to question the laws she has always obeyed. Erik’s monstrous future may not be inevitable. Their fragile alliance deepens into a forbidden bond—one that defies both magical law and recorded history.

But the laws that govern Eilis’ magic exist to preserve the timeline at any cost. Saving Erik could unravel the future that creates the Phantom of the Opera—and erase the legend the world remembers. If Eilis chooses love over fate, she may save the man she loves, but alter history in ways even she cannot foresee.
