Critics Review
‘A dark jewel of a book, glinting with adventure, a gorgeous dark academia setting, and spellbinding romance’
Natasha J. Hastings, author of How to Charm a Viscount
‘An intoxicating blend of the supernatural, Celtic mythology and an atmospheric Cornish town, Scott weaves an enthralling tale of desire and temptation. I was lured in by the gorgeous descriptions of art and the coastal setting, and ensnared by the characters and thrilling plot as it unfurled’
Rachel Greenlaw, author of Compass and Blade
‘Simmering romance melds with dark academia in this lush, immersive tale—I was completely spellbound from the very first pages’
Lyndall Clipstone, author of Unholy Terrors
Megan Scott
Megan Scott is a romance and fantasy writer from a coastal town in the North West of England. Her debut for young adults, THE TEMPTATION OF MAGIC, is publishing with HarperCollins in the UK and US in 2024, beginning the EMPYREAL trilogy.
She studied Art History and Classical Civilisation at university and masters level, looking at depictions of myth in nineteenth century art which still inspire her novels. When she’s not writing or on Pinterest, she’s trying to read as much as her nana, falling more in love with romance books, or paint something she doesn’t want to ceremoniously burn in the garden.
