Synopsis

She was warned. He was cursed. Neither of them listened.A necklace that feeds on blood. A forbidden touch. A love that could destroy them both.On the night of my engagement party, my estranged father crashed back into my life—only to disappear again, leaving behind a prism necklace I can’t take off.It’s not just jewelry. It’s alive. It pulses with ancient magic—blood-bound, volatile, and hungry for more than I understand.Now it’s changing me—pulling me away from the life I swore I wanted… and toward Hoyt Locklear, a stranger forged in secrets and danger. A man with a prism of his own. A man I was never supposed to touch.Because when our skin meets, the magic strikes back. Violent. Addictive. Punishing.And still, I can’t stay away.Caught between a fiancé who promised me safety—and a man whose touch feels like fate—I’m falling deeper into a prophecy I can’t escape.The longer I wear this necklace, the more it owns me. And the less I want to be saved.For readers who crave forbidden love, cursed magic, and stories where desire demands a price.

4.7/5 I really wanted to give it a perfect 5, at some points in the begging I didn't understand. Or was a bit bored in. But it's not the fault of the book, I just kept thinking about what was going happening next and was getting impatient for that "turn". "Thank you for being...patient with me," I sa......more
