But in a world of bloodthirsty fae and vengeful ghosts, being a mortal comes with constant risks. As Elle navigates a kingdom of monsters and tragic secrets, she realizes she might not survive to save her family.

Marrying my best friend for money without revealing my hidden feelings for him…How hard could it be? Everything was going great until my life fell apart. One minute, I had a great internship, I was accomplishing my dream of becoming a storm chaser, and I was happy. But in one single day, I became jobless, homeless, and deeply in debt, my life stuttering to a crashing halt. Forced to head home to Meridel, proverbial tail tucked between my legs, things only got worse when I ran into my best friend, Liam—err, ex-best friend. We’d been friends since we were kids, up until he moved away two years ago to chase his own dream of being a famous country music singer, effectively cutting me out of his life for good. But now he’s back, and to top it off, his manager has created a harebrained scheme to improve his new bad boy image—marrying me . If it weren’t for the money promised to me in exchange, I never would have agreed, especially when I’d been hiding the fact that I'd been in love with Liam for years. But now, I have to marry my best friend, live in close quarters with him, and help him fix his reputation, all while keeping my feelings hidden? Should be a piece of cake. Right?
