Sylvia has spent twenty-one summers defying the ironclad rules of her fairy village, driven by an insatiable hunger to explore the human world. Her curiosity leads her to a mysterious, vacant mansion—a venture that ends in disaster when she is shot by Jon and Cliff, two seasoned monster hunters who mistake her for a supernatural threat. The encounter forces an unlikely alliance: to survive, Sylvia saves Jon’s life by sealing a magical, high-stakes pact with the ancient fae. Now tethered to the hunters, she is forced to join their grueling quest to track down a lethal werewolf. As they traverse the dangerous landscape, the initial hostility between the fey fugitive and the hunter begins to thaw into a simmering, forbidden attraction. However, this enemies-to-lovers dynamic is built on a foundation of dangerous secrets. If Jon discovers the truth about Sylvia’s pact or her origins, her fate is sealed. With the full moon approaching and the clock ticking, the pair must navigate a web of intrigue and supernatural danger. In this thrilling urban fantasy, Sylvia must fight for her survival while struggling against a love that could destroy them both.
