Synopsis

'A hypnotic, heat-drenched romantasy' Jean Kwok, New York Times bestselling author

'A deliciously sexy paranormal romance set in the Black South' Demi Winters, bestselling author of The Ashen Series

'With enough romantic tension to make Hell itself look like tundra, this sizzling romance is an absolute delight' Shalini Abeysekara, bestselling author of This Monster of Mine

Galilee Kincaid is haunted by the pull of something ancient, a secret too vast to name. Raised in the shadow of the Kincaid legacy, a formidable clan of Black women rooted in the weeping willows and rushing creeks, a hollow ache has always pulsed inside her . . .

Until she meets him. Lucifer Helel. From the moment Gali lays eyes on him, something stirs within her. His gaze burns like fire, a predator's hunger concealed behind the mask of a mortal. In an instant, Gali knows he is not human.

From their very touch, Lucifer sees the truth about Gali - she's not human either.

Enter Leviathan, Lucifer's most trusted prince of Hell. A creature of shadow and fury, Levi has one mission: destroy Galilee before she unravels the delicate balance that binds Heaven, Hell, and Earth.

Because Lucifer and Galilee's unstoppable attraction is more than forbidden - it's powerful enough to tear apart the very fabric of existence.

As the world teeters on the edge of eternity, will Galilee embrace the untamed force within her and risk everything to reclaim her true self?
