In a hidden world of ancient magic, broke college senior Elara Voss is one heartbeat away from losing everything—her home, her future, and her life to a deadly generational curse that's claimed every woman in her family. Desperate, she stumbles into an underground auction and signs a forbidden "love contract" with the enigmatic immortal warlock Thorne Blackwood. The deal is brutal: Thorne grants her unlimited wealth, protection, and the power to break the curse... in exchange for her heart. For one year, she must pose as his devoted fiancée in public, while the contract binds their souls tighter with every touch, every kiss, every stolen moment. What starts as a cold transaction quickly turns dangerous—because the bond is greedy, and the line between fake love and real desire is disappearing fast. But Thorne hides his own curse: centuries of immortality without feeling anything, feeding off emotions he can never truly have. As the bond grows stronger and hidden enemies emerge to claim the contract's power, the stakes rise. Break the curse, and they might both survive. Fail, and one of them will lose everything—maybe both. Enemies-to-lovers. Soul bonds. Cursed deals. Steamy tension. High-stakes danger. Perfect for fans of twisted fairy tale bargains, brooding immortals, and heart-pounding romance with dark magic.
