What if your favorite book could pull you in-literally?
Elena Valdez is a trauma nurse holding her real life together with shaky hands and sleepless nights. Still haunted by the mysterious disappearance of her younger sister, she's buried herself in a dark fantasy novel-A Kingdom of Ash and Blood-a world of crime, war, and a dangerously captivating kingpin named Lucien Morelli.
But one night, Elena wakes up inside that very world... bleeding, breathless, and face-to-face with the fictional man she's secretly obsessed over.
Lucien shouldn't exist. And he sure as hell shouldn't remember her.
Trapped between a world inked in fiction and her reality unraveling back home, Elena is forced to play along while unraveling why the barrier between their worlds has cracked-and what it has to do with her sister's disappearance.
As danger closes in and Lucien's obsession turns possessive, Elena must choose: run from a man born of violence and ink, or face the possibility that he might be the only one who can lead her to the truth.
But in a world built on blood, secrets, and betrayal... love might be the most dangerous fiction of all.
