Enchantra

Enchantra by Kaylie Smith
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I honestly read the previous book under the incorrect assumption that it was a standalone, so imagine my delight when I realized there was a book that had Genevieve, the sister we spent too little time with, had her own book!

While we got a brief intro and look at Genevieve in the previous book, we really get to dive into her own history and personal trauma. We knew she had been more in-the-know about their mother’s secrets than Ophelia was, but in this book we learn that Genevieve had secretly been corresponding with one of her mother’s close friends. While she is on her little adventure, she ends up getting hit with a hex as a result of her not visiting the mysterious estate where she meets Rowin. After he promptly slams the door in her face, he had pretty much guaranteed that the stubborn sibling would dig her heels in.

Genevieve’s first stubborn act ends up putting her on the path to participation in a murderous game of hide and seek, run by a Devil, and ultimately to save Rowin’s mother. As she can’t leave and can’t play on her own, she winds up married to Rowin so she can compete. I’m not really sure how to sum up all that goes on, but there's a lot of sizzle, secrets, murder, and even some relationship building. There was enough of a trauma bond by the end of this that I was rooting for these two to build something real. Everything is tied up neatly at the end, but maybe we get more in the form of books for the other siblings? One can hope!
