Marcus Thorne hated reckless mages.

Elysia Gray hated arrogant men with too much power.

Unfortunately for both of them, a forbidden spellbook decided they belonged together.

After a midnight break-in inside the academy’s restricted library binds them through a powerful magical bond, Marcus and Elysia are forced into a connection neither of them can escape. Every spell pulls them closer. Every secret deepens the bond. And every stolen touch threatens to consume them completely.

But the spellbook is hiding a far more terrifying truth.

The deeper the bond grows, the more their hearts, magic, and souls begin to intertwine. Powerful forces within the royal council will do anything to tear them apart before the final bond is sealed forever.
