She is the spark. He is the shadow. And their souls have always known each other. Centuries ago, Roman watched everything he loved burn-including his immortal mother, condemned for powers no man could understand. Born of divine blood and burdened with an ancient legacy, Roman vanished into myth, hiding from gods, kings, and the haunted memories that chase him across time. In the coastal town of Ventura, Ella is trying to survive a fractured home and the loneliness of being too strange, too smart, too sensitive. Until the night she meets Leo-enigmatic, unnervingly familiar, and impossibly drawn to her. When a body is found on the beach and fire consumes the house across the street, Ella's reality begins to unravel. Secrets long buried rise with the tide. As Ella is pulled deeper into a world of ancient deities, cursed bloodlines, and dangerously seductive power, she must decide who she can trust. . . and what she's willing to become to protect those she loves. Because some loves are written in the stars- and others are carved in blood.
