Synopsis
Blurb: I wasn't sure what to expect when arriving in Salem. Forced to marry a man I've never met, attend a private university I'd never heard of, and the whispers of a rumored secret society filling the halls. This life would be near unbearable with my insufferable fiancé if it wasn't for his uncle, his best friend, and his enemy. When none of them are willing to let me go, it sends us down a path I'm not sure any of us will survive. The life I was promised is distorted behind smoke and mirrors. The truth cloaked by Deceit.
