Much Ado About Magic: A Magical Malcolms Novel

Lady Lucinda Malcolm Childe has an uncanny talent for painting pictures that predict future events. When her prize painting of a romantic hero is displayed in an art gallery, however, an earl declares it’s a portrait of his bastard grandson on the scene of his heir’s murder, starting the scandal of the season.
Sir Trevelyan Rochester, privateer and the earl’s reviled grandson, has returned to England, and to his astonishment, he’s accused of murder and the center of scandal before he’s even set foot on shore. Discovering his cousin dead and his grandfather in an apoplectic coma, he sets out to find the artist who has ruined his future, only to fall into the snares of an enchantress who changes from laughing maiden to warrior princess in the blink of an eye.
The woman bewitches him and soon he’s believing her unbelievable story, but how can a man accused of murder offer a future to witch or lady?
