But when a new terrifying curse is revealed, Evangeline finds herself entering into a tenuous partnership with the Prince of Hearts again. Only this time, the rules have changed.

Es war einmal ... ein Mädchen ohne Erinnerung. Evangeline Fox hat sich auf der Suche nach ihrem Happy End bis in den Fantastischen Norden gewagt. Und es scheint, als hätte sie es gefunden: Sie ist mit einem gut aussehenden Prinzen verheiratet und lebt in einem sagenumwobenen Schloss. Doch Evangeline hat keine Ahnung, welch verheerenden Preis sie für dieses Märchen gezahlt hat. Sie weiß nicht, was sie verloren hat, und ihr Ehmann ist fest entschlossen, dafür zu sorgen, dass sie es auch nie erfährt. Aber zuerst muss er Jacks, den Prinz der Herzen, töten.

Schneeflocken rieseln vom Himmel, Magie weht durch die Straßen des Meridianreichs, und die ersten Einladungen zum Großen Weihnachtsfest der Kaiserin Scarlett liegen in den Briefkästen. Bis zum Beginn der Feierlichkeiten braucht Donatella, die Schwester der Kaiserin, ein perfektes Geschenk, um dem geheimnisvollen Caraval-Master Legend ihre Liebe zu beweisen. Ihre Suche führt sie auf rätselhafte Pfade: Zwischen so bunten wie giftigen Weihnachtsleckereien, finsteren Tunneln und unerklärlichen Wundern geht Donatella große Risiken ein, um ihr Ziel zu erreichen.

Scarlett lebt in der Obhut ihres gewalttätigen Vaters auf einer abgeschiedenen Insel. Sie sehnt sich danach, die Heimat zu verlassen und an dem legendären Spiel Caraval teilzunehmen, das die magische Erfüllung von Wünschen, Abenteuer und Freiheit verspricht. Als Scarlett vor ihrem Vater flieht und Caraval zum ersten Mal betritt, fühlt sie sich am Ziel ihrer Träume. Doch etwas Dunkles und Geheimnisvolles umgibt das verzauberte Spiel.

Evangeline Fox hat immer an Happy Ends geglaubt. Bis sie erfährt, dass die Liebe ihres Lebens kurz davor steht, eine andere zu heiraten, und ihre Träume von jetzt auf gleich zerplatzen. Um die Hochzeit noch rechtzeitig zu verhindern – und ihr eigenes verletztes Herz zu retten –, sieht Evangeline nur einen Ausweg: Sie muss einen Deal mit Jacks, dem charismatischen, aber niederträchtigen Prinz der Herzen eingehen. Als Gegenleistung für seine Hilfe fordert Jacks drei magische Küsse, deren Empfänger und Zeitpunkt er bestimmt.

Es war einmal ... ein Mädchen mit einem tödlichen Fluch. Evangeline Fox möchte mit Jacks, dem Prinz der Herzen, nichts mehr zu tun haben. Zu tief sitzt der Schmerz über seinen Verrat. Jetzt, da sie ihre eigenen magischen Kräfte entdeckt hat, will sie ihr Happy End selbst in die Hand nehmen. Doch als sie sich einem neuen Fluch stellen muss, bleibt Evangeline keine andere Wahl, als sich erneut mit Jacks zu verbünden. Denn dieser Fluch ist sehr viel gefährlicher als ein Liebeszauber – um nicht zu sagen ... tödlich. Und in diesem Kampf könnte Jacks sogar der Einzige sein, dem sie vertrauen kann.
