About this book
Kiss of the Basilisk Twenty-year-old Temperance has never experienced romance—until she's selected for an outrageous competition where she'll train with a mysterious basilisk to master the art of seduction and potentially win a prince's heart. When she's paired with Caspen, the enigmatic Serpent King himself, the stakes suddenly feel much higher than a crown. But as Tem grows closer to both Caspen and the prince, she uncovers dangerous secrets that force her to choose between two worlds—and two loves—in ways she never anticipated. Fair warning: this one is steamy, deliciously complicated, and absolutely impossible to put down!

“Create a playlist called Kiss of the Basilisk. Dark, sensual intensity meets forbidden desire—think sultry R&B, industrial gothic, and atmospheric synth-pop. Moody vocals layered with hypnotic beats. Passion colliding with danger. Artists like The Weeknd, Grimes, Massive Attack, and FKA twigs. Scorching chemistry wrapped in shadows.”
