Only the men I love can save me from my curse... but they are sworn enemies. Can I bind them to me before I burn?

 After night falls, when the respectable customers have left and her bookshop is quiet, Astoria sells illegal and bloodthirsty grimoires filled with dark magic. It's dangerous work, but her irresistibly charming book-thief partner, Lucas, makes the risks feel like a game.

Astoria has lived in hiding for seven years, after unleashing a devastating curse on her family. When she escaped, she left everything behind... including her magnetic, aristocratic fiancé Valen, whose dark gaze still haunts her dreams.

But then a deadly grimoire breaks loose in the shop, shattering Astoria's control over her magic and nearly killing Lucas. Only one man has what she needs to stop it: Valen.

Lucas and Valen hate each other on sight. Yet when Astoria's curse rebounds and begins to consume her, they're forced into a fragile alliance to steal the priceless amulet that can save her.

Can Astoria face the betrayals of her past and claim a future that might hold all three of them? Or will the rivalry between Lucas and Valen doom them all?

Perfect for fans of Jasmine Mas and Sadie Kincaid, this series blends J Bree's dark "why choose" romance with Holly Black's deadly, bookish magic.
