The Devil's Deception — Amy Webb

Tessa Madison, imprisoned at the estate of Visionary Coalition leader Raphael Valdez, finds herself in a terrible spot: while allowed to wander about his castle freely, should she step outside, the life thread keeping her daughter alive will be snipped by Valdez's magical shears. To make matters worse, her husband Scott finds a love letter in Tessa's suitcase from the obsessed Simon Spellman, an enigmatic wizard with more than a passing interest in Mrs. Madison. Believing that Tessa has left him for Simon, Scott makes no move to rescue her...until his daughter becomes violently ill and all becomes clear. Will he reach Tessa in time? And worse, will her feelings for him have changed? Two months is a long time to be in the lair of the enemy...
