A dark and dreamlike love-at-first-sight fairytale filled with secrecy, magic and a bid to win your heart's desire__________________'Siegel weaves romance with sinister intrigue in this dreamy Alpine fairytale . . . I was utterly enchanted' SAMANTHA SHANNON__________________We humbly request your attendance at The Auction of Secrets. 1795. Five years has passed since Genevieve de Vienne fled the falling blade of the French Revolution. Yet still she is haunted by the past. Until she receives a seemingly impossible invitation to an auction at a grand ch�teau, where secrets are for the bidding and the prize is your heart's desire. High in the Alps, the Ch�teau Reverie clings to its mountaintop, beautiful and merciless. Alongside other competitors, Genevieve is offered a chance to stay as long as she can, and to sell her secrets at the final hour in order to win her greatest wish. But there can only be one winner, and the longer Genevieve remains, the more she must reveal. Leander Sterne does not remember his past. When his own invitation to the auction arrives, he does not have any secrets to bid with - but his greatest desire is worth risking everything for. And he has nothing to lose. Genevieve and Leander, consumed by unexpected love, must decide if their connection is strong enough to withstand the Ch�teau's growingly intoxicating and cruel enchantments. In a place where honesty is currency and illusion is power, winning may cost them everything... __________________- Readers say the book is 'wonderfully atmospheric', 'magical and unsettling', and there's a 'growing sense of danger'
