Selene’s life is a series of quiet compromises—until a glowing portal yanks her from Earth into the fierce, matriarchal realm of Aurelia. Trapped in a world of monsters and magic, she’s assigned a reluctant guardian: Samael, a vengeance demon with rage in his heart and a smoldering stare that could ignite stars.
Samael has a plan—use Selene to escape Aurelia and reclaim what was stolen from him. But as they journey together in search of the stone that can send her home, enemies close in, secrets are exposed, and desire flares hotter than hellfire.
Selene must decide if returning home is worth abandoning the one creature who truly sees her.
He was sent to betray her. She was never meant to matter.
But fate? Fate has other ideas.
