Zane is cursed. A magical creature trapped in the body of a human man. As hard as he tries to hate mortals, he cannot deny that he feels a strange connection to a certain woman…
Sera has been alone her entire life. She is a young social worker who spends her days attempting to heal her broken city. She is destined to an arranged marriage, a life and social status she cannot seem to fit into. Lonny, her fiancé, who has just been released from prison, is hoping to win Sera's heart back, despite all the pain he caused her.
Zane is bitter, jaded, and has given up on finding his way back to himself. Until Sera, the only one who can see Zane's true form, stumbles into his life.
When Sera pledges to help Zane break his curse, the two are plunged into a dangerous, fantastical adventure that will teach them the sacrifice of self-acceptance, the heartache of true love, and what it ultimately means…to be human.

Confinement

He’d spent the entire day looking for her and had come up empty handed. The shelter told him she wasn’t due back until next week. The clinic informed him they hadn’t seen her in a few days. The maid who opened the mansion doors told him that Sera left early this morning and had yet to return. 


By the time Lonny got back to his penthouse on the South side of the city, he was desperately anxious for answers. Is this how it was going to be? Every time he tried to get close, she was going to disappear on him? He shrugged off his suit jacket, not bothering with the lights as he sauntered towards the floor to ceiling glass windows and looked out at the night. 


For someone who’d recently acquired his freedom, Lonny was feeling more trapped than ever. This place felt cold. Another prison, just like the one he’d come from. He was alone. He was without her. How could he convince her to give him a chance? What would it take?
