Enchantra

Enchantra is the second entry in Kaylie Smith’s Wicked Games series, following the events of Phantasma. In the first novel, the focus is on Ophelia Grimm. The story opens with the death of Ophelia and Genevieve’s mother Tessie. As the eldest Grimm daughter, Ophelia inherits Tessie’s necromancy powers and her mysterious locket. However, Ophelia soon finds out that she also inherited Tessie’s debts. To avoid losing Grimm Manor, Genevieve enters Phantasma, a deadly competition hosted by Devils that grants the winner a Devil’s Boon, a prize of anything the winner can imagine. Ophelia, worried about Genevieve, enters Phantasma to find her. Throughout the dangerous competition, Ophelia bonds with a ghost named Blackwell, who endeavors to help her win in exchange for help freeing himself from Phantasma. They grow closer, and their relationship turns romantic. Ophelia eventually finds Genevieve, and both sisters realize they are Specters, a type of magical being capable of turning invisible and passing through solid objects. Their father, Gabriel, was a Specter, and he met their mother during Phantasma before entering the competition again to win her back. His failure led to Tessie’s death. Ophelia convinces Genevieve to drop out of the competition.
