Daniel made sure I remembered what I was—fragile, broken, easy to hurt. But he never expected the carnies to look back. To see me. To protect me.
Now I’m hiding in a traveling wonderland of magic and monsters, tucked into the shadows of three extraordinary
A vampire with time in his hands and fury in his blood.
A tiger shifter who growls like sin and guards like a sentinel.
And a mind-bending demon who holds me together with silk and whispered promises.
I’m not like the women who twirl through their acts with grace. I’ve got a bendy body that betrays me and a heart that forgets to pump when I need it most. But they never treat me like I’m weak. They never treat me like I’m less.
They call me their princess.
They treat me like I matter.
And if Daniel ever comes close again… they’ll show him what happens when a man tries to steal what belongs to the dark.
Found family. Fierce love. A girl with EDS and POTS finding her fire in the most unexpected place—center ring.
