About
From the beloved USA Today bestselling author Falon Ballard comes a seductive romantasy that blends Macbeth and Moulin Rouge! into a hypnotic saga of sex, love, and murder.
The country of Avon is in turmoil. After The Uprising overthrows Avon's monarchial rulers, a decree is sent out stating that candidates for the first presidential election will be selected by the completion of a special task: to kill the former monarch of their home province.
Callum, the son of the recently dethroned king, is determined to be in the running. But to do so, he must come to terms with killing his father, the key to which lies in Lady Caterine's hands.
Lady Caterine is a Gifted courtesan at La Puissance, Avon's premiere sex club. She has the magical ability to manipulate the emotions of anyone who experiences an orgasm in her presence. If Callum can only open up to Cate, he will be able to commit the murder without suffering guilt, and take his place as the rightful candidate from his province.
But Callum has a deep-seated mistrust of the Gifted. So the last thing he expects is to be confronted with an undeniable connection with Cate that neither understands, or wants.
As Callum and Cate find ways to open up to each other for the sake of the country, they discover a darker force building within La Puissance, one that might ruin the future of Avon for good. To stop Avon from falling to ashes, they must sacrifice everything they have . . . even each other. Falon Ballard is the USA Today bestselling author of several rom coms and the co-host of the Happy to Meet Cute podcast. When she's not writing a romance book, reading a romance book, or talking about romance books, you can probably find her at Disneyland. Ballard lives in the Los Angeles area.
