"Beauty never dies. It adapts. And beneath the petals, it learned how to bleed."

Cassi never feared the soul sucking vampires until they took her voice. Vampire victims are cast out of society and left only as snacks for more vampires. With no way to regain her voice, Grand Duchess Cassi turns to vampire Leith in a desperate gamble to save herself and the country from a hostile takeover. Bored with killing rogue vampires, Leith agrees to use her father's gifts to "puppet" Cassi and give her a voice to court four men for a month. This highly dangerous and illegal vampire magic might get them both killed if anyone discovers that Cassi is drained or Leith's vampire status. As Cassi and Leith fool and fall for two of the dashing suitors, those who know their secrets emerge from the shadows. Will they be able to pull off the ultimate deception, or will they both end up sucked dry by the humans and vampires around them?
