Description

Isel grew up sheltered and loved, shielded from the world's cruelties. When she receives a marriage proposal from Archduke Rahan El Kanox—a man notorious for his cruelty and feared as a demon—she accepts despite her family's protests, hoping to save her household from ruin. But the man she meets is nothing like the rumors suggest. Kind and gentlemanly, he shows her only warmth and protection. As Isel struggles to reconcile the gentle archduke before her with the fearsome reputation that precedes him, she begins to question everything she's heard about him.
