Synopsis

This is a fast-paced, scorching enemies-to-lovers story packed with occult magic, mysterious villains, and found family.

Athena Edgeworth was raised by ruthless mercenaries, and she knows how to get what she wants. When ex-assassin Kon tries to seduce Athena and steal a magical manuscript for his boss, he sets in motion a rivalry that will push them both to their limits.

As they compete for the most powerful mystical relics around the world, Athena and Kon become addicted to the thrill of the chase and to each other. But when their obsession with the magical relics leads them into a trap, they must put their rivalry aside and work together to survive.

Contains mature themes.

About Alessa Thorn

Alessa Thorn believes that all monsters and villains deserve their happy endings. She prefers her clothes black, eyeliner winged, and books full of hot romance. She thinks heroes are boring, so her first series, the Court of the Underworld, centers around dark gods, monsters, and villains from her favorite Greek myths.
