"In Phantasma, the only thing deadlier than losing the game is losing your heart."
PHANTASMA
Wicked Games: Book 1 by Kaylie Smith
A Dark Fantasy Romance — A Court of Thorns and Roses meets Caraval
Welcome to Phantasma. There are only two rules. Stay alive. And don't fall in love.
THE STORY THAT WILL CONSUME YOU
When Ophelia's sister disappears, there is only one way to save her — enter Phantasma, a deadly contest inside a haunted mansion, and claim its prize: a single wish.
In a maze of twisting corridors and lavish ballrooms, she must face nine challenges, each more dangerous than the last. Just as fear threatens to overwhelm her, a mysterious stranger offers her a bargain. Charming, arrogant, and infuriatingly attractive, Blackwell claims he can guide her through the lethal trials ahead.
Ophelia knows she shouldn't trust him. Worse still, she can't stop herself from wanting to.
Nine challenges. One wish. And a stranger she absolutely cannot fall for.
The game has already begun.
