Lilia has always known something was wrong with her life. Shadows whispered her name, nightmares felt too real, and her mother's eyes held secrets too heavy to speak. On the eve of her twenty-first birthday, the truth comes clawing out of the dark: she was sold at birth to a demon in exchange for her mother's freedom. Now the debt has come due. He arrived cloaked in shadows and premises, ready to claim his bride and drag her to the underworld as his queen. Bound by blood and an ancient pact, Lilia must confront the terrifying legacy left to her and the demon whose touch both terrifies and tempts her. Caught between a cursed fate and the stirrings of forbidden desire, Lilia must make a choice: escape the hell that awaits for her-or embrace the devil who would make her his no matter what.
