How far will Giselle run to escape what fate has dealt her?

Will she ever truly be free from the shadows that not only want her soul, but have her reborn as their Queen?

Giselle is about to find out exactly how twisted Hell can be…

As Giselle travels through a Hell she never believed existed. Her wit is tested beyond belief, and all the while her closest companion Antoine fights to keep her sanity intact, whilst battling the incessant desire burning deep inside him.

Atarah teams up with Xavier to finally bring Giselle’s existence to an end, and raise baby Kaden as their own, but Alex is more than willing to end his son’s life to spite them all.

Will Giselle finally break free from the lure of the Shadows?

Can she avoid falling for the call of the Nymph?

Will Kaden survive the battle of all battles; Giselle and Alex?

Nothing has prepared Giselle for what is about to happen.
