God Bones

A dark academia retelling of Beauty and the Beast with laces of Greek mythology.

Lucy is human in a family of powerful sorcerers. Growing up sheltered, Lucy's life takes a turn for the worse when her sister falls victim to a deadly spell.

Hell bent on saving her sister, Lucy marries into a dangerous family of sorcerers and moves to an old gothic chateau in the middle of France, only to find her fiancé is not quite the monster she expected. But with historians disappearing and death magic being used for the first time in history, nothing is as it seems.

Gods whose names are long forgotten are awakening, and a certain death deity has made her his enemy.

Torn between love and duty, trapped in a game of madness and death. Lucy's best shot at survival is to embrace her cunning and her cruelty: traits she never thought she might possess as she transforms from a gentle wallflower to a dangerous spy. She is determined to succeed, but what will it cost her?
