Rayne and her brother have been kidnapped by a group of mysterious men dressed in black. She is separated from her brother, whom she does not know the whereabouts of, and she fights to escape this strange place called étrangers, French for foreign. Rayne realises that étrangers is no ordinary place, and the people there are not what they seem to be. The more time she spends at étrangers, the more she enjoys it there, finding solace in that beautiful immortal world. But happy endings do not exist in étrangers, with hidden lies and deceit, heartbreaks and bitter truths, and Rayne realizes that she has to make a choice that will change everything.

Born with a damaged heart, Leanna Weston has lived a sheltered life with little chance at adventure.

Caught by Finvarra, Leanna is given one chance at survival: she must join the circus. As slowly she becomes part of the strange family, Leanna learns that there is more than magic to this circus, but an ancient curse that has tied Finvarra's life to its rings. If the circus fails, he dies. Leanna vows to save the circus, but when a ruthless enemy emerges, set on destroying it and Finvarra, will Leanna be able to save them both, or will her broken heart fail her just when she needs it most?
