When Emilia's twin sister is found murdered in 1880s Sicily, she's willing to cross every line—even dabble in forbidden dark magic—to hunt down the killer. Enter Wrath, a devilishly charming prince of Hell who claims he's there to help, though Emilia quickly learns that nothing about the Wicked can be trusted. As they navigate a dangerous investigation together, the tension between them crackles with an intensity that's hard to ignore, forcing Emilia to question whether Wrath is truly an ally or a threat. This atmospheric revenge tale will have you absolutely captivated by the slow-burn chemistry and delicious moral complexity.
Reading soundtrack
Dark gothic romance with tension and intrigue—moody indie, haunting orchestral strings, and brooding alternative. Think shadowy ballrooms, forbidden allure, and slow-burn chemistry. Artists like Florence + The Machine, Hozier, and Evanescence capture this dangerous elegance.
