It's 1893, and after much persuasion from her mother, Charlotte Cloutier moves from the big city of Paris, to of Adeline, a sleepy city known for their extravagant festivals. On the night of their most popular, the Toussaint Festival, is also Charlotte's first night in the city. Her interests in magic pull her towards a Magic show, hosted by a masked man who vanishes at the very end of his act, leaving Charlotte only with an image of his eyes and a rose. For weeks, she tries to find his show again, until she bumps into a man with similar characteristics as the magician, whom she chases. The magician, intrigued by her ability to recognise him, befriends her. Will they end up together? Or will the magician continue on his lonesome path?

Avoid looking into those golden eyes. One look is enough and you will be lost forever. Once upon a time, beyond the forests and mountains, where the leaves always wore the color of autumn, a girl with great talent grew up, with her mother and father. One day, however, their happiness was stolen by tragedy. Her mother fell ill and death called her to the other side. Nothing was the same anymore. Her father remarried. And in the end, time took him away too. Iris was left alone with her stepmother and stepsister. They made her a maid, a slave. A prisoner of a life she hated. But something deep inside her prevented her from leaving the house she grew up in - her home. There, as a child, she created all the miracles with her mother and wanted to continue doing so, to give joy to those less fortunate. Like when she made a dress for the butcher's wife, whom her husband no longer loved, that made her irresistible to him again. Or when she made a shirt for her best friend Jace that was supposed to protect him from the edge of swords, since he liked to provoke the royal guards. Her little secret. But one day, her peaceful life decides to take a completely different direction and everything goes wrong. She meets a prince. She helps her stepsister win him for herself. And ancient family secrets get involved when a demon she is magically bonded with appears. A long-hidden story begins to unfold before her, revealing the truth about her mother, her ancient ancestors, and herself. And it all started with her simply taking off the necklace she should never have taken off.
