Mira married a cursed Alpha no one wanted, in a wedding meant to destroy her, not save her. Trapped in a body that hasn't moved in three years, he was supposed to be nothing more than her punishment: a silent husband, a dead-end marriage, a family that hoped she'd disappear right along with him. She never expected him to wake up. When Ronan Ashgrove opens his eyes, he's furious, powerful, and hiding a secret his own family buried with him. Mira discovers she isn't just his wife by law, she's bound to him by something older than the curse itself, something her own sealed power was always meant to answer. Now enemies are closing in from every side, hungry for the aura she's spent her whole life hiding, and the man she married is the only one who might understand what she really is. Mira must stop hiding the power they always feared in her. She must decide if the man behind the curse is worth trusting with it, and if love built from nothing but debt and duty can survive what's coming for them both.
