To Destroy an IllusionA Glass Mountain Retelling

Surrounded by glass and glamour, how can you know what's real?

Now
Isobel's life is perfect - as long as she doesn't look too closely at the cracks in the glass. Yet, it's a lonely life, so when a charming young man takes the place of her reflection and speaks with her, she's glad for the companionship, even if his secrets threaten to topple everything she knows. Just how did she come to live in this glass palace?

Before
Kieran might play the part of the roguish younger prince, but he takes seriously his role as the last line of defense against threats to his parents and brother. When Lothilla brings her goddaughter to court wrapped in too much glamour, and his brother falls for the girl too quickly, he knows that something must be wrong. But what can he do against the power of an elder fae?

Secrets and mystery abound, and who knows the truth under the perfection? What will stay standing when the illusion is destroyed?
