From internet sensation Lindsay Straube comes the first in a searing romantasy series where survival demands submission, and desire is the most dangerous game of all.

Temperance Verus has never been kissedā€”not exactly ideal for a girl competing in the palaceā€™s most closely watched matchmaking ritual. Every year, a select group is invited to bond with the realmā€™s magical basilisks and train in the art of charm, poise, and influence. The prize? A chance to win the princeā€™s favorā€”and a life of privilege.

Tem expects rules, gowns, and etiquette.

She doesnā€™t expect her assigned partner to be Caspenā€”the Serpent King, commanding, mysterious, and anything but safe. As he pushes her to unlock the strength she never knew she had, Tem finds herself drawn into something deeper, stranger, and far more powerful than royal approval. 

But not all bonds are built for the court, and some secrets are meant to break them.

Readers call it ā€œferal, spicy, and unforgettably bold.ā€ For fans of morally grey monsters, slow-burn fantasy romance, and stories that subvert the fairytale script.
