The mission: Put on a dress, pretend to be a lady, and infiltrate the academy of mages to steal a journal from the forbidden archives. The problem: I’m no mage and I’ve never worn a dress in my life. But it’s not like I have a choice. My bastard of an uncle basically sold me to a dangerously pretty nobleman, and they can’t pull off this heist without me. Unfortunately, once I fake my way through the entrance exam with a piece of hacked mage tech, and reach the floating kingdom of Reverie, my problems are only just beginning.

I thought death would be a one-way trip. I was wrong. After a botched assassination attempt, I took a bullet to the heart. That should have put me down for good, but the vampire lord who hired me for the job tied my soul to an Aztec demon. Now I’m stranded on an island full of rabid wolves, my only companion the trigger-happy ex-boyfriend who shot me. The supernatural community thinks I’m a traitor, and my own sister thinks I’m a murderer. Our only chance is to ally with the wolves.

Being a supernatural assassin and bounty hunter had its perks...until the Trust’s bloody assignments made me question everything. When I found my sister lying in a coma, I became a mercenary, killing vampires to pay her hospital bills and searching desperately for a cure. When my handler offers me a job that could clear my debts and give me answers about what really happened to Cat, I’m all in.

A bloody ritual left my sister in a coma. I’m going to get her back. It’s been two years, 17 days, and 12 hours since I discovered my sister’s body surrounded by witchcraft and black magic. She’s barely kept alive by machines - and if I can’t pay the bill this month, the mages at Fallen Oaks will pull the plug. So when my ex-employer shows up at my door with a possible cure, it’s tempting to slip back into my role as a killer for hire. One job, he tells me, and I could have the answers I need to save Cat for good.

I thought death would be a one-way trip. I was wrong. I thought killing the vampire who bound my soul to an Aztec demon would be the end of it. But instead of saving the thousands of infected wolves he’d the Trust had quarantined, I’d condemned them to a fiery death...and I was not prepared for what I found on the scorched island. In a last-ditch effort to contain an imminent apocalypse, I challenged a demon-possessed former colleague to an infernal duel he could not refuse.

With the help of her new friends in Reverie and the demon companion in her magic sword, Wynter Wilcox opened the chamber beneath the city and discovered the true secret to the kingdom’s power. But when King Gregory learns the truth about the rogue mage that has infiltrated the academy, he declares war on the rival kingdom of Aubade and sends Dorian off to the battlefield. There’s only one way to stop the destruction: sneak into Aubade and free the demons supporting the floating kingdom. 

The good news: I miraculously survived a would-be fatal fall. The bad news: A demon helped me do it. The worst news: Prince Alexander saw everything. Reverie is supposed to be paradise, but the power holding the floating city aloft isn't holy; it's demonic. Now, demons are attacking my classmates, and I think they're targeting me. If we can't find the source behind the attacks, the entire kingdom could be in danger of falling from the sky.

I can speak to demons. The punishment is death. The mission: put on a dress, pretend to be a lady, and infiltrate the academy of mages to steal a journal from the forbidden archives. The problem: I’m no mage, and I’ve never worn a dress in my life. But it’s not like I have a choice. My bastard of an uncle basically sold me to a dangerously pretty nobleman, and they can’t pull off this heist without me.
