Still suffering for being the inadvertent catalyst of her family's financial downfall and tired of doing her conniving father's bidding, Miranda Ellis agrees to marry the wealthy, enigmatic Lord Benjamin Archer, a man who hides his secrets behind a black mask but will do anything to protect Miri from the killer targeting those he cares about. But fearless Miri has lethal, fiery secrets of her own. As the pair must deal with an ancient curse and an experiment gone wrong, Miri's powers may be the only thing that can save her love.
VERDICT Beauty and the Beast meets Phantom of the Opera (with hints of Carrie and an abundance of Egyptian mythology) in this gripping, intoxicating story, simmering with incendiary sensuality and featuring a heroine who risks all to save the man she loves. An exceptional debut and the first of what promises to be a compelling series. Callihan lives in the Washington, DC, area.
