Entwined Duology – Entwined by H. M. Long

Ottilie Rushforth hides from the mighty Sorcerer’s Guild as secretary to a has-been detective. But Ottilie is also Entwined – threads of magic run beneath her skin, and the Guild would trap her in service.

Working on a plan to escape the Guild forever with her estranged fiance, the enigmatic poet, soldier and smuggler Lewis Illing, Ottilie must track down a mysterious artefact, claim the bounty, and leave the city forever. But her sisters – Pretoria, a quick-witted sorceress and thief recently emerged from exile, and Madge, a guild mage to the core – are making offers just as unwelcome as the Guild’s. She can have a new life at the cost of everything she has ever wanted, or prestige and safety in a gilded cage.

With her life and liberty on the line, Ottilie must track down the artefact in a city being torn apart by prejudice and violence. She must choose between the two sides of herself – the fugitive or the Entwined.

Three sisters join the hunt for a stolen magical artefact in the start of this Gilded Age fantasy duology. Perfect for fans of heists, skullduggery and stolen kisses, and authors such as Nghi Vo and M. A. Carrick.
