Her younger sister Melody captures the attention of eligible gentlemen with her beauty while Jane's magical talents go unnoticed. The sisters navigate a world where manipulating glamour ranks as a necessary accomplishment for ladies, but marriage prospects still depend on conventional attractions. Jane accepts her invisible status until a crisis threatens her family's reputation. She must stretch her glamour abilities beyond their limits to protect those she loves. As Jane fights to restore her family's honor, she discovers that her remarkable skills and fierce loyalty draw the notice of someone who sees past surface appearances.
