You'd think someone with a cursed mark on her wrist would learn to avoid trouble, right? Wrong. In Arcadia, a city where ancient secrets collide with modern chaos, keeping my head down is like trying to outrun my past—it never works. Then comes August, the so-called "Devil's Hound" with eyes like a thunderstorm and an irritating habit of knowing too much. His job? To hunt witches like me. My job? To make sure he doesn't figure out I'm not just any witch—I'm the one everyone's been whispering about. When an ancient relic and a looming curse throw us into a reluctant partnership, things go from bad to 'why am I not running in the other direction?' fast. Between the cursed lake trying to drown me, a shadowy figure with too many answers, and August looking at me like I'm a puzzle he both loathes and needs to solve, I'm beginning to think I might be in over my head. But the fire in me isn't one to burn out easily. So, if the world thinks it can play its games, I've got news for it: I'm not just a pawn—I'm here to rewrite the rules.
