Layla’s beauty and innocence shone like all the stars in the sky. I sent her away to preserve that light within her, knowing the danger of my world would seek her out if she stayed. But I wasn’t prepared for the complete darkness that enveloped me when she left.
I became the red king, bathing in blood and burning with rage held back by a sheer wall of ice. Then she returned, bringing the beauty of the night once again.
The secrets she carries illuminate the lies that have hidden in the shadows for so long. Letting me hunt those who threaten her like the predator I am. Because I won’t make the same mistake twice. Layla is mine.
I will destroy anyone who tries to take her from me again.

This book is not for the faint of heart. It will tear your heart out and stomp on it before putting it back together. The characters are not perfect and the heroes are flawed. If you’re looking for sunshine and rainbows, I suggest you try another book. But if you want real emotion with a happily ever after, then you’ve found your book.
