When
two beautiful teenage stage magicians in World War II England meet a pair of
handsome men who can do real magic, sparks fly. But is it illusion, or
delusion? Opening-night jitters are nothing new for Phil and Fee Albion, who
come from a long line of stage illusionists. The girls love to dazzle London
audiences, but in the aftermath of the Blitz they're bundled off to the
countryside, where they're safe from bombs and Nazis--and bored to pieces.
Phil, always the passionate one, discovers a hidden college of real magicians
led by the devastatingly handsome Arden. If only Phil can persuade these
unworldly magicians to help England win the war! Daredevil that she is, she'll
risk anything to give her country a fighting chance, even if it means losing
her heart . . . or her life.
This sounds really good. I love the idea of illusionists...puts me in mind of The Night Circus and Strange and Norrell. Thanks for sharing.
