To rescue her, I have to spend six months in Tartarus. Pretending to be his mate. His queen.

Stuck living in the catacombs underneath what used to be NYC, I've managed to stay hidden and alive and safe-ish. But when my guardian fails to return from a supply run, I'm forced to contemplate life on the surface. Worse? Three warriors have infiltrated my home, insisting that I am the last gold dragon they've been searching for. That everything I know everything I've believed is a lie.

Sarah—We hadn’t spoken in years, and more often than not, he was on my mind. When I moved back to town he reached out. I stalked him enough times on social media to know he had a wife and two kids. I didn’t want to get my hopes up, but the pull I felt inside couldn’t be ignored. Aaron—She was back. I thought I’d never see her again, but there she was. Within my reach.

Lying low wasn’t easy, but in doing so, I found something else, something new.
