Ella Evermore has known nothing but pain and servitude under the cruel hand of her husband Kain, a man whose rage and cruelty are matched only by his desire to control her every move. Each day is a battle to survive, her dreams of freedom dwindling with every harsh word and violent blow. But when the opportunity to escape into the perilous Fae Lands arises, Ella seizes it, despite the dangers that lie ahead. Crossing into a world of ice and magic, Ella faces challenges beyond her darkest fears. From the biting cold that seeks to freeze her very bones to the relentless fae-cursed wolves that hunger for her flesh, every step is a test of her strength and willpower. Yet, amid the terror, she finds herself face to face with a mysterious fae male. And her curiosity may just get her killed. Deep in the Winter Court Fae Lands, Rylan Thorn has given up on removing a curse that was put on him over 1000 years ago. A curse that turns him into a monster at night, and any of those who dwelled inside his castle during the curse are invisible during the day. His anger and lack of care have pushed many fae folks away, and only the few who are cursed with him remain. One night, he is notified that a human has passed the barrier into his land. Out of boredom, he decides to investigate. But something about this human has him more than intrigued.
