Cruel Beauty

Since birth, Nyx has
been betrothed to the evil ruler of her kingdom-all because of a foolish
bargain struck by her father. And since birth, she has been in training
to kill him.

With no choice but to fulfill her duty, Nyx resents
her family for never trying to save her and hates herself for wanting
to escape her fate. Still, on her seventeenth birthday, Nyx abandons
everything she's ever known to marry the all-powerful, immortal Ignifex.
Her plan? Seduce him, destroy his enchanted castle, and break the
nine-hundred-year-old curse he put on her people.

But Ignifex is
not at all what Nyx expected. The strangely charming lord beguiles her,
and his castle—a shifting maze of magical rooms—enthralls her.

As
Nyx searches for a way to free her homeland by uncovering Ignifex's
secrets, she finds herself unwillingly drawn to him. Even if she could
bring herself to love her sworn enemy, how can she refuse her duty to
kill him? With time running out, Nyx must decide what is more important:
the future of her kingdom, or the man she was never supposed to love.
