About this book

When a girl cursed since birth finally escapes her wretched mother, she doesn't find the noble knight of her childhood dreams—instead, she discovers a scarred, solitary man living in a fortress of bones by the sea, equally cursed and cast out by those who fear him. Lucian Blackthorne is everything dangerous and forbidden, with amber eyes that ignite her and whispered sins that intoxicate her far more than any fairy tale ever could. As their dark connection deepens, she realizes this broken man needs saving far more than she ever did, and their curse might just be the one thing that could heal them both. Prepare yourself for a twisted, atmospheric love story where the real magic lies not in redemption, but in two lost souls finding solace in each other's darkness.

“Create a playlist called Master of Salt & Bones. Dark, haunting indie and gothic rock with sensual R&B undertones. Think moody atmospheres, forbidden desire, and raw intensity. Artists like Halsey, Chelsea Wolfe, The 1975, Cigarettes After Sex, and Arca. Atmospheric, spicy, dangerous.”
