Book Three of The Underground City Series

Tallis told me he loved me the same night he admitted he'd been ready to sell me to the devil.

Tallis needs me. I don't know how I know it, I just do, but I'm not about to let a demon spirit finish devouring the only man who's ever made this hell bearable. So, I do the one thing my guardian angel begs me not to: I walk back into the Dark Wood alone.

What I find waiting for me isn't the brooding, unshakeable warrior I fell for. It's something else wearing his face: something ancient, furious, and trying to claw its way out from under his skin. Saving Tallis means doing something I never thought I'd be capable of. It also means finally understanding exactly what Tallis has been running from his entire immortal life.

I don't get long to recover before Alaire calls in his marker. One dinner, he said. One meeting to keep me out of Shade. I should have known nothing involving the Keeper of the Underground City stays that simple: not the dinner, not the bargain woven into it, and not the blood that ends up spilled across his dining room floor before the night is through.

Because here's the part nobody warned me about: Tallis and Alaire have a history. A deal. And I'm the currency.

Every answer I get only opens up worse questions, questions about what Tallis was willing to trade for his own freedom, what Alaire actually wants from me, and whether guardian ever really applied to the man I've trusted with my life since the day I died. My sword has never lied to me. I'm starting to wish it would.

Somewhere in the wreckage of betrayal, demon bargains, and a debt to the devil I can't unmake, I have to decide something I'm not ready to face: whether the truth changes what Tallis is to me, or whether I already knew exactly who he was and fell for him anyway.

The kind of love that survives hell isn't supposed to be this messy. Then again, nothing about the Underground City ever plays fair.

One-click now for the darkest, most emotionally brutal installment yet in this addictively funny, wildly original romantasy series.

Lily Harper's story continues in Book Four of The Underground City Series, Persephone.
