She was his curse. And he was the poison she never saw coming.
Samara has endured years of cruelty at the hands of her brothers, clinging to the hope of escape. When a royal marriage proposal offers salvation, she seizes it—only to have her journey sabotaged. Ambushed and rescued by Lore, the wicked Elven Prince of Nightshade, Samara is thrust into a darker, more dangerous realm.
But Lore doesn’t just want vengeance—he wants her. For seven years, he’s burned with obsession, haunted by a love that won’t die. Samara is his weakness, his remedy, and the one toxin even his deadly powers can’t counter.
As past sins surface and desire becomes a dangerous game, will they find freedom in each other—or be destroyed by the fire they can’t resist?
