Kaylie Smith makes her adult debut with an enthralling gothic romantasy set in a haunted New Orleans mansion, perfect for readers of Rachel Gillig and Kerri Maniscalco!
Phantasma only has two rules: Stay alive - and don't fall in love.
When Ophelia discovers her mother brutally murdered, there is no time to grieve: she has inhereted the family's fearsome magic and enormous debt. Circumstances go from dire to deadly, however, when Ophelia's sister decides to pay off the loan by entering Phantasma- a competition where contestants rarely escape alive, and the victor is granted a single wish.
The only way for Ophelia to save her sister is to win. But Phantasma is a cursed manor, full od twisting corridors and lavish ballrooms, staffed by enticing demons and fatal temptations. And Ophelia must conquer all nine floors to succeed... if her fears don'tovertake her first.
When a charming, arrogant stranger claims he can help, Ophelia knows better than to trust him. But with her sister's life on the line, Ophelia can't afford to turn him away. She'll just need to ignore the overwhelming, dark attraction drawing them closer and closer together... Because in Phantasma, the only thing deadlier than losing the game is losing your heart.
