As if being married off to a stranger isn't horrible enough, Typheme learns that her husband is feared and abhorred across the land. Count Lucien de Vesper, with a voice that could shake the rafters, commands his castle like a medieval tyrant. But such a man chooses Typheme to be his bride and gives everything she desires, as if fulfilling her wishes is his sole purpose in marrying her. But to what end?
Despite questions and apprehension, Typheme accepts the marriage, believing she has escaped a living hell only to find herself stepping into the real inferno.
Filled with biting wit, uneasy romance, and one woman's refusal to play the gothic victim, The Devil May Care is a genre-bending tale of freedom, fury, and a heroine who will survive her fate, no matter how close it is to hell.
