Dahlia Schweitzer

Queen of Hearts Dahlia Schweitzer

In glamorous, superficial Los Angeles, where lies are commodities and illusions are everything, Adrian thinks Mark will give her the marriage and children she desperately craves. But then he makes the mistake of taking her to Hollywood?s exclusive and secretive Magic Castle. Dark, sensual, and full of twisting passageways, the Magic Castle feels like a relic from another era, a Victorian mansion inside as well as out. Here, Adrian first sees Rafael, an intense Spanish magician with a talent for card tricks and mind games. Despite numerous distractions after that initial encounter--a naked pool party hosted by a certain Hollywood producer, a late night rendezvous with the aging director, to name just a few?all Adrian can keep thinking of is Rafael. But what's Rafael's agenda? Adrian will be forced to see through the illusions before she can discover real magic and the man ready to give it to her.
