Publisher Description

One of Booklist's 101 Best Romance Series of the Last 10 Years from a highly imaginative, award-winning author

A unique combination of historical and fantasy romance, The Lord of Illusion is an adventurous romance. Readers of Karen Monin, Jennifer Armentrout, Kresley Cole, and Diane Duval will be engrossed by Kathryne Kennedy's use of magic, violence and romance to paint a picture of an alternative history of England.

Lord Drystan Hawkes dreams of fighting for England's freedom from the endless evils of the Elven Lords. But first he must find the beautiful girl who holds the secret to his quest.

Enslaved for years in a realm of illusion, Camille Ashton has learned to trust no one. But she's truly spellbound when she meets Drystan, and somehow when they are together, she can see what's true.

Together, Drystan and Camille must solve the mystery to open the portal and gain England's freedom from Elven rule.
