A breathtaking romantic fantasy inspired by Beauty and the Beast about a girl who paints the future and a cursed dragon lord, bound by love and deception in a plot to bring down the gods.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Six Crimson Cranes!

Truyan Saigas didn't choose to become a con artist, but after her father is lost at sea, it’s up to her to support her mother and two younger sisters. A gifted art forger, Tru has the unique ability to paint the future, but even such magic is not enough to put her family back together again, or stave off the gangsters demanding payment in blood for her mother’s gambling debts.

Left with few options, Tru agrees to a marriage contract with a mysterious dragon lord. He offers a fresh start for her mother and sisters and elusive answers about her father's disappearance, but in exchange, she must join him in his desolate undersea palace. And she must assist him in a plot to infiltrate the tyrannical Dragon King's inner circle, painting a future so treasonous, it could upend both the mortal and immortal realms. . . .

Stella M. ★★★★★

The pages feel luxurious and the cover art is gorgeous in person, plus the signed bookplate was carefully packed so it arrived without a crease. I started it last night and already can't put it down — the Beauty and the Beast vibes with a painter heroine hooked me immediately.

Lucy ★★★★★

The bookplate signature is crisp and clean, and the cover art feels even richer in person. I started it last night and already can't put it down—the dragon lord's dynamic with the painter is exactly the angsty tension I was hoping for.

Henry K. ★★★★★

The foil on the signed bookplate catches the light beautifully, and it feels like a real keepsake rather than an afterthought. I’ve already read the first chapter twice—the premise of a girl painting futures is as gripping as the cursed dragon lord’s slow-burn tension.
