Part of Once Upon a Broken Heart
First published 2022
Evangeline Fox has sworn off trusting Jacks, the Prince of Hearts, after his devastating betrayal. She's discovered her own magical abilities and plans to use them to reclaim the happy ending he destroyed. But a murderous curse changes everything. This deadly spell forces Evangeline into an uneasy alliance with Jacks once more, though the terms between them have shifted completely. Jacks may no longer be her greatest threat. In fact, he might be her only ally, even as she struggles against her feelings for him. The curse that now threatens Evangeline's life demands action rather than the love spells that once plagued her. She and Jacks must confront former allies turned enemies, dangerous new adversaries, and magic that manipulates both mind and emotion. Evangeline has always followed her heart's guidance, but the stakes force her to question whether she can rely on it now.
