A small-town faking dating romance from the bestselling author of Flawless and Wild Love. Stefan Dalca is infuriatingly handsome and annoyingly persistent. We're supposed to hate each other, but apparently he didn't get the memo, because he's been asking me out for years. And I always say no. Until today. Today he has something that I desperately need - today, he's my saviour. Our time together starts out as a simple transaction: three dates, no touching, no telling anyone - and definitely no falling in love. But with every intimate conversation, and each stolen glance, the tension between us builds. The way he looks at me gives me butterflies. And when he finally touches me? We sizzle. Stefan makes me feel seen in a way no other person has before. He cherishes my words as passionately as my body. He makes me laugh, he makes me blush. He's not the villain he's been made out to be. And suddenly I find myself longing for him in a way the people closest to me wouldn't approve of or understand. Giving in to Stefan Dalca is playing with fire. But with him I don't even mind the heat.

Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before. Those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

He's also my devastatingly handsome professor, who seems to loathe tenacious first-years, like me. Except, his dark and enigmatic gaze tells me all the ways he'd devour me if given the chance, and his stolen kisses burn my lips with forbidden jealousy. I crave his authority. He aches for redemption. Together, we're toxic. Delicious fodder for the prying eyes hellbent on exhuming the rotted skeletons of our pasts. For the dead have much to teach, and it's only a matter of time before Dracadia's most depraved secret is resurrected.

One that bleeds darkness and feeds on the damned. When he's tasked to become the priest in Festivalé, Vermont--a town both beautiful in architecture and riddled with despair--his sickness sings, demanding he rid the place of evil. Amaya Paquette is Festivalé's beautiful mystery. She spends her days caring for her younger brother and her nights transforming into Esmeralda, dancing for greedy eyes and shameless lips.

And temptation is a devastating mistress. She's his weakness, so he decides he'll be her demise...even if it means killing the only woman he might ever love.
