Sarái “Ara” Vega was supposed to marry the man her family chose. Until Mikal “Malice” Belizaire walked into the chapel and stole her from the altar. He says she was promised to him long before she knew it. Now she’s trapped in his world, the dark, opulent Halo District , where loyalty is law and love feels like a war. But the way he touches her makes her question everything her family, her past, and the vows she was about to make. Because maybe she was never meant to be saved. Maybe she was meant to burn right beside him.
