After her sister dies under mysterious circumstances as the bride of an exiled prince feared by all, Louanne is sent to take her place.
Officially, she’s there to fulfill her family’s duty. In truth, she wants answers. What really happened to her sister?
The prince, rumored to be cruel and monstrous, wants nothing to do with her at first. But Louanne soon discovers that beneath his cold exterior lies a man carrying deep pain.
Using her healing magic, she quietly helps ease his suffering night after night, even while hiding wounds of her own.
Back home, the uncle who exploited her powers for his own profit is beginning to lose his grip, and Louanne finally starts to feel like she might be free from her family’s control.
But Sable Manor is filled with secrets, and the truth behind her sister’s death may be far darker than she ever imagined.
Has Louanne finally escaped her cursed past… or has she walked straight into an even more dangerous future?
