MARRY THE PRINCE. THEN KILL HIM.

Princess Madalina and her twin, Inessa, are born attached at the hand – the only time the sisters will ever be united. One is gentle, the other ruthless – their natures forged in the crucible of royal ambition.

But when Inessa becomes trapped in ghostly purgatory, Madalina must take her twin’s place as a bride with deadly orders: marry Prince Aeric, then kill him.

In a rotten kingdom, everything is politics and poison. Can Madalina resist the infuriatingly clever prince and, for the sake of her family, put aside her heart?
