As Ethan and Xenia work together to undo a curse, his wounded soul begins to heal, but her dangerous secrets threaten their happiness. If one kiss leads to desire, will more lead to loveor heartbreak?

Reader Raves:

"A wild love affair steaming up the pages." -Pamela B., Netgalley

"Great characters that pull at your heart (oh yes, I teared up) and let you love them as they are." -Angela, Goodreads

"A spinoff from the Blackwoods was always going to be amazing, but after reading it, I'm even more convinced and can't wait to read the full set. Ethan and Xenia's story has so many fantastic tropes, it's hard to know where to start. Hidden identities, class differences, recovering from mutual trauma, and a ghost??? Perfectly done, a fantastic couple." -Jordan D., Netgalley

"Wonderfully written with lots of feels. I was totally immersed in the story." -Ruchika, Goodreads

"Get out your tissue and your hankie because this one is all of that!" -Bridget, Goodreads
