They called her the useless princess, the girl without power, the burden of the crown.
When her family betrayed her and gave her to the Devil of the Court, she thought her life was over. Instead, it became something far more dangerous.
Bound by a contract of blood and shadow, she should have hated him. Yet in the dark halls of his realm, hatred began to shift into something else. When her family's throne collapsed, he claimed her as his bride. Now she wears a crown no human was ever meant to bear.
Life as the Devil's Queen is no fairy tale. His court is filled with creatures that do not bleed, breathe, or dream like she does, and every glance is a warning while every gesture is a test.
She was once powerless, but now the fate of two worlds rests on how long she can endure as the only mortal on a throne built of shadows.

When the time comes to select her consort through the age-old contest, Lydia finds herself suffocating in a world of masks and manners. Among the peacocks of polished nobility that now swarm her home, she must navigate deception, ambition, and perhaps, the stirrings of something far more dangerous than politics.
