Each day, she kneels, hands clasped, whispering her plea to the universe and to every god watching her, hoping for salvation in the form of a tall, handsome stranger. With less than a year until she's forced to marry a man she despises, Baby's obsession consumes her. Every sign, every omen tells her he's near, but when a fire traps her in its deadly heat, she nearly laughs at the irony. As smoke fills her lungs and her whispered prayer fades, a figure breaks through the flames--an enigmatic man named Arson who pulls her from death's grasp. But when she wakes, he's gone without a trace, leaving her haunted and desperate to find him again. And when she does, he turns her away, his indifference chilling her. But rejection only deepens Baby's obsession. Bound together by a web of secrets, missing people, and dangerous threats, Baby is determined to make Arson hers. Because for her, Arson is no mere savior--Arson is her twisted salvation. And Baby will stop at nothing to make him the key to her escape. ⟡ 𓆩♡𓆪 ⟡ TRIGGER WARNINGS AHEAD. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.
