You can't help being what you are. It's in your blood. Zoe's past is full of shadows - they snap at her heels as she escapes with burns and bruises. The plan was to lie-low. Not to draw any suspicion. Least of all a demon's. Paris is a demon whose used to easy prey. From the shadows, he observes Zoe, but just when he thinks he has her figured out - a whole new list of questions arise. Something about her pulls at him.

She always thought her father and his followers were insane - until Paris whispers a proposition in her ear that she can't refuse.
