Lady Jasmina ‘Jaz’ Karlyle has magical powers, but she mainly uses them to keep her mother out of trouble.  Her mother, who also has magical powers, is a kleptomaniac.  Jasmina secretly retrieves the stolen item and returns it to its rightful owner.  To cover herself, she makes a twin or an illusion of herself.  Her illusion does not think.  She only follows her orders and does what Jasmina needs her to do.  She stays in bed until Jasmina comes home, so anyone checking on Jasmina will see that she is sound asleep in bed.  Only persons of royalty and baronets are immune to magic, so only they could see through her ruse.

Sir Sterling Thorn of Witchsire Cottage is a shape shifter.  His abilities give him the title of baronet.  The lack of an estate makes it an empty title.  He is looking for his sister and feels the upcoming ball that evening may be just the place to look, even though the society matrons will not let a baronet near their daughters.  However, at the ball, Sterling will be introduced to the prince consort who he hopes will help him, as he fears his sister was abducted. 

 

To return the ruby brooch which her mother stole to the duke who owns it, Jasmina must forgo the ball.  However, as she casts the spell, she notices something unusual.  The spells are causing her to have pain in her thigh.  Stranger still, after returning home from completing her mission, she finds that her illusion is not in bed.  In fact, she is not around anymore. 

 

At the ball, Sir Sterling happens upon the beautiful ‘Jaz’ who carries the same scent as the marquess who carried off his sister.  He helps her escape her aunt, taking her home with him.  He cannot believe how amorous she is and that she doesn’t care that he is a shape shifter.  In fact, leaving the ball, he is in his stallion form, which is larger than any real horse, yet she does not fear him.  So he marries her that night before she has a chance to get away.  However, the next morning she is gone.  As Jasmina and Sir Sterling each search for ‘Jaz’, they run into each other, and Sir Sterling mistakes her for his new wife ‘Jaz.’  When he finds out who she really is, they join forces to find ‘Jaz’ and compare notes.  They discover that the ruby brooch that Jasmina returned was one of Merlin’s relics and because of it, Jasmina created a real person instead of an illusion.  Now if only they can find her.  From the gossip they have been hearing, she is ruining Jasmina’s reputation since she seems to be sleeping all over town, even with the husband of Jasmina’s best friend.  They also need to recover the relic because if one of these relics falls into the wrong hands, it could be a threat to the entire country.  They also have one other problem.  The more they are together, the less they are able to keep their hands off each other.
