Synopsis

He was my husband—until a siren in the moonlit lake whispered that the real Caleb Whitaker was dead, and the man in my bed was a monster wearing his skin. Torn between a town’s suspicion and the chilling touch of a husband whose scars tell centuries-old secrets, I spiral into a nightmare of betrayal, murder, and the supernatural. With every storm, the line between love and vengeance blurs—neighbors die, ghosts rise, and the king of the dead demands a bride. Now, with a knife in my trembling hand and the truth clawing up from the lake, I must choose: betray the monster or become one myself. When the wedding march echoes through the land of the dead, who will wear the crown—me, or the man I was doomed to love? Would you trade your soul for revenge, or is love just another curse waiting beneath the surface?
