NYT Bestselling Author Carrie Ann Ryan continues her magical paranormal series where a town keeps its secrets, but an aging curse might just be their downfall.
The Christopher curse is one of legend—so old that every new generation knows they will be touched by it. With every spell muttered, every magical pull needed to save her town, Laurel Christopher knows she’s one step closer to burning to ash and leaving those she loves behind. She’ll fight with all she has to protect her people—and the man she loves—but she might not have enough strength remaining to save herself.
Jaxton Dark lost his best friend to the necromancer attacking Ravenwood but refuses to lose his mate to a curse that could take them both. He’s well aware of the loss calling them, but before he can stand up for those he loves, a betrayal cuts him to the core.
Sacrifice was always an inevitability when it comes to the curse that threatens their fate. Yet it’s only when the darkness makes a subtle and surprising move that star-crossed lovers, Laurel and Jaxton, will truly find out the meaning of who they could be and what they must give up to survive.
What should have been a gift is being used against Laurel due to a curse and now not only is her life in danger but the lives of everyone she cares about. She believes that the best way to keep those she cares about safe is by isolating herself from them, but her mate isn’t about to let her face the battle on her own.
Jaxton knows that Laurel is his mate, and he isn’t about to let anyone or anything come between them. With ever action he takes he is determined to prove that they are so much stronger together than apart and the love they share is just beginning and not the ending.
Two captivating characters take us on a suspenseful journey filled with surprises you don’t see coming as they prove that love can overcome any challenges that come its way.
