He started with a simple trick where he made a coin disappear and reappear behind his ear. The dogs were amazed and clapped their paws in delight.

Curse of Shadows and Thorns (Hardcover)
As niece of the king, Elise Lysander cares about two things: sneaking into gambling dens, and avoiding an advantageous marriage at all costs.
When her uncle holds the life of her deathly-ill father over her head, reluctantly, Elise puts her fate into the hands of Legion Grey, the handsome and mysterious dowry negotiator. He may be arrogant and infuriating, but soon Legion incites a blistering, forbidden passion she can't ignore.
As their attraction grows, so do the dangers: attacks from black-eyed people, a cursed enemy who is more beast than man, and rumors of fae returning for the crown they believe was stolen from them long ago.
After a bloody coup upends the kingdom, Elise flees with Legion, but nothing is as it seems. The man she allowed into her heart reveals his own secret plans with the return of magic-and he has every intention of using Elise to see them through.
With war between magic and mortal on the horizon, Elise must pick a side to protect her kingdom. Does she stand with her people who stole the throne? Or with a man who lied his way into her heart and whose secret past could bring her destruction?

He lay down on a table and covered himself with a large box. He waved his wand, said the magic words, and the box split in half - or at least it appeared to. The dogs couldn't believe their eyes. They could see Kipper's upper and lower halves separated by the box. But just when they thought the trick was real, Kipper popped his head out from one side and fooled them all. For his grand finale, Kipper decided to do a disappearing act. He climbed into a large box, closed the lid, and tapped his wand on the side three times. When he opened the box, he was nowhere to be found. The dogs looked around the room in confusion and wondered where Kipper had gone. Suddenly, they heard a giggle from behind them, and they turned around to find Kipper standing there, triumphant. After the magic act, Kipper admitted to his friends that some of his tricks were just illusions. He showed them how he performed the coin trick using a hidden pocket and how he created the appearance of being sawed in half using a cleverly designed box. The dogs were amazed at the deception behind the magic and enjoyed learning how the tricks were done. Kipper's magic act was a hit with his friends. They praised his showmanship and creativity, and they all agreed that Kipper had a true talent for magic. From that day on, Kipper continued to practice his tricks and entertain his friends with his magical skills. He may not have been a real magician, but he was certainly a master of illusions..
