Publisher's Synopsis
This book is for readers who love enemies-to-lovers dark romances, fated mates, jealous/possessive/morally gray men, elemental magic, "touch her and die," banter, and multiple POV.
A secret that changes the path of two souls. A war of realms. An obsession that can destroy them all.
Rachel
To escape the two men hunting me, my mother and I set out for a secret academy in Venice-a school of dhampirs hidden within the ancient city. But when we arrive, there is nothing but rubble and bones. Everyone has either fled or died. Now, we seek refuge within a secluded villa owned by the academy's professor, Darius Cruça, preparing for what comes next. He and Valentina plan to forge an alliance with other clans and covens worldwide. Their goal is to bring about the end of the Black Onyx Coven and their European ally, Lemurian Quartz. She will put us all in the middle of a brewing war that will change the world's fate.
Jase
Four months have passed since Valentina shared the secret connecting Rachel Hardmann to my fate. I refuse to accept this and dedicate my energy to retaking her ring. However, there is one problem-Andrei Dimitriou has fallen into a dark obsession with Rachel. He's willing to destroy everything, including his empire, to get her back in his clutches. He will even wreak havoc in the three realms. Now, I must reach Venice before Andrei does because, despite my denial, I'm inexplicably drawn to the dhampir, and I have to save her from the dark fate he has in store.
