Overview

She knew he was lying. He knew she was the one. Neither expected the vow that would bind them-or the curse that would test them.Amabella Waverley has forty-eight hours to save her family from ruin: accept a forced marriage to a dead prince, or watch her family's debts destroy them utterly. The Crown's offer is brutally simple-her compliance in exchange for her family's survival. But the veiled stranger she weds is not Prince Thaddeus Erasmus, the kingdom's golden heir. She knows it within a day. What she doesn't know: he's Theobald Erasmus, the overlooked third prince-and the masked stranger she shared one perfect, reckless night with eighteen months ago. He recognized her instantly. She has no idea. Before either can untangle their deceptions, Duke's Manor seals under royal quarantine. The deaths that follow bear no marks of plague, only traces of something far darker. The manor itself has awakened, and it demands blood. Trapped together, Amabella and Theobald must unravel a conspiracy reaching the throne, confront the ancient curse written into the manor's bones, face family betrayals that shatter everything they believed, and choose between comfortable lies and devastating truth. As investigation turns to passion and alliance becomes love, the cruelest truth emerges: the golden prince everyone mourned isn't dead. He's been orchestrating everything from the shadows-and he's coming home to claim what's his. Some marriages are made in heaven. Theirs was forged in deception, tested by dark magic, and might just be worth dying for. Perfect for readers who crave Gothic atmosphere, morally complex characters, smart heroines, tortured heroes, supernatural suspense, and historical romance that respects your intelligence.
