Decadent. Dark. Devastating.

Seventeen-year-old Harper Ellory knows the ruins of the past are a dark place for a new beginning. Then she meets Antoine Marigny, and discovers just how seductive darkness can be.

After the death of her twin sister, Harper dreams of a new life. But not only is the Mississippi mansion she moves into cursed, it’s also Antoine Marigny’s family home. Now he wants it back-no matter the cost.

Harper’s seen too much death to be frightened off by a curse. But Antoine is a different kind of threat. He has an infuriating smile, an annoying habit of turning up when she least expects it, and a frustrating knack for getting Harper to talk about things she’d rather keep hidden.

Like her emotions.

Antoine is also keeping secrets of his own. Secrets that Harper suspects are far darker than the curse he says he wants to protect her from.

Harper knows Antoine is dangerous. Part of her wants to take his offer and run. No dream is worth dying for.

But Harper is done running from death.

She’s ready to make an offer of her own. An offer destined to turn Antoine Marigny’s life upside down.

Even if it means binding herself to the curse forever.

I was hooked. I binge read this. I finished the book longing to know how things will proceed - Kelsey/Goodreads review

I couldn’t put it down. Loved Harper’s character. Bolshy, resilient, seductive and a little humorous to boot. Am very much looking forward to reading the next book.

The best read in this genre I’ve had for a looooooong time - KT, advance reader

…has all the trappings of tragedy, loss, historical curses, evil undead and teens. Not full of sex, and it doesn’t make you want to rip your hair out reading about people making stupid mistakes - KW/Goodreads review
