Description

Annie Mason never expected her wealthy, enigmatic neighbour to be a witch. She certainly didn't expect to fall in love. But when she witnesses a confrontation between her childhood friend Bea and the infamous Emmeline Delacroix at one of Emmeline's extravagantly illicit parties, she is drawn into a glittering, haunted world. A world where magic can buy what money cannot, and where the consequence of a forbidden blood bargain might be death.

Annie learns that Emmeline is blood-cursed, and stubborn, frivolous Bea holds the key to the debt. But Bea refuses to pay, even if that means risking Emmeline's sanity - or worse. With Emmeline growing weaker with every day, Annie must put aside her mistrust of magic to help Emmeline survive. If she doesn't she might lose the love she never thought she could have.
