Set in a society where women are denied the usage of magic so as not to harm their unborn children, sorceress Beatrice Clayborn is in a rush to find a magical grimoire to avoid being married off. She stumbles upon the very book she needs only to have it snapped away by the handsome Ianthe Lavan. The pair starts an unlikely friendship, exploring secret magical rooms and finding solace in each other. As their bond deepens, so does the danger they face. The Midnight Bargain is an exploration of women’s rights, romantic love, and sacrifice.
