In London, the female members of the Ton believe that handsome, charming and intelligent Lord Aubrey Ashford is the catch of the season. This when Aubrey asks Eve Faraday to dance with him, she has problems believing he wants her. In fact skeptical of his desires for her she goes out of her way to avoid him as she is deeply attracted to him.

Aubrey asks permission of Eve's father to court her, which he grants. Aubrey begins courting Eve in earnest and his kisses melt her disbelief until they marry. They move to his family home on Fair Isle where his sister Arianna suggests she interrogate her spouse who is hiding the truth from her. She demands he tell her what he has failed to reveal to her. Aubrey explains that he is an immortal who loves her. They can live forever in his world or a lifetime together in hers; either way Aubrey insists he loves Eve.

BRIDE ENCHANTED is an enjoyable paranormal Regency romance in which Eve with her doubts make for a fun tale. Aubrey knows he loves Eve, but she cannot accept a God like him could care for someone life her; that is her feelings even before he confesses his nature. Edith Layton writes a delightful immortal romance starring two likable protagonists as he tries to persuade her that she is the one his forever love.
