"You're not a monster," she whispered.

How many times had she whispered those words to herself?

Ryn is a monster, a murderer, an enchantress. Though magic once ran deep in fae blood, it's now outlawed -- because the only magic left belongs to the vampires and the stolen blood in their cursed, vile veins. But Ryn has learned to enchant on her own, how to control blood and appraise the soul it belongs to. Her little secret condemns her and her sister to a life in the shadowy slums.

When a desperate act to save her ailing sister results in a death sentence, Ryn's only salvation is a shocking proposal from a notoriously heartless prince. She isn't supposed to fall in love with him. He isn't supposed to fall in love with her. It's just a mutual opportunity for freedom from their circumstances... right?
