It's not something you could complain about. Then he's caught in the middle of an affair involving politics, corruption, and the fate of thousands of people. But that's not the real danger.

She has reasons of her own for wanting his secrets, and Merlin is subjected to all her erotic charm as she tries to learn his powers. Will the prophecy will be fulfilled once again? Will Merlin die victim to his own lusts and desires, giving to a beautiful woman the very secrets she needs to destroy him? Enchantress is a dark and compelling story of lust, desire, corruption and betrayal.
