Résumé :
Enjoy the first three Enchanted Legacy books bundled together for the first time. The Legacy's Origin: What makes a person a witch? For those living in sixteenth century Scotland the very word witch is terrifying. Everyone is afraid of witches, both to be accused of one, and to be cursed by one. In a series of events beyond their control one family faces their ultimate fear and the consequences they can't escape. The very idea of witchcraft becomes all too real for the Dalais family. Caitr?ona Dalais Guaire, Sorcha Dalais Creag, and Niall Dalais are torn from their homes and put on trial. Their very lives are at stake, and everything points to their eventual demise. In an act of desperation one of them arranges for the children to be secreted away to safety. Only time will tell if they are successful and if their legacy will live on... One Enchanting Kiss: To most, she is Moire Noble, the average daughter of a unimpressive Scottish family that settled in London. But the truth is far more intriguing. Born with the ability to see premonitions, Moire must work hard to guard her secret or risk suffering the fate of her mother...accused of witch craft and burned. For years her secret has gone undiscovered, but now that her twin Lili is engaged to be wed everything will change. Moire is forced from the comfort of her home and family, cast into the world around her, and exposed to new people. She has little choice but to act when she has a vision showing the death of a male guest at Lili's engagement party. Handsome-as-sin Thomas Astley is more than a little intrigued by the vibrant, saucy woman who saved his life. He knows she is more than she seems, and vows to discover all of Moire's secrets. A move that unbeknownst to him threatens her future and all she holds dear...including her heart. Enchanted Ever After: Samuel Noble was born after his father had been tried and executed for being a witch. His mother fled Scotland with Samuel's uncle Daniel. He was raised with the last name of Noble, but in truth he was the son of Baron Niall Dalais. Now over thirty years later, with a new king, he decides to attempt to reclaim his title and lands. He wants to restore the Dalais name and attempt to erase the taint of witchcraft from his family history. The king agrees on one condition: he must marry a bride of the king's choosing. Temperance Warren is the bastard daughter of an earl. She has no prospects, and no real future. Her father petitions the king to choose a husband for her. She has no choice and is forced to agree to the match. There is no reason to expect anything good from the man the king orders her to marry. He is the son of a convicted with. How could anything ever be all right for her again? Samuel and Temperance are both uncertain about their lives, but if they're willing, they might find that they are allies and not enemies. They just have to learn how to trust each other, and the feelings growing between them.
