All she wanted was a quiet life of research. Falling for a charming socialite with dangerous secrets was never part of her plan. Historian Zanthi Ilyston has never been likeable. She is too quiet, too plain and her strange eyes, while they allow her to see the unseen, unnerve others. All she wants is to disappear into a quiet life of research. Madoc Casca, heir to the famed healing Gardens, and Esk’s most notorious socialite, has other plans. He needs her help. The healing waters of the Gardens are failing, and the secret to saving them is hidden in an ancient myth that refuses to be remembered. As she delves deeper into the dark waters of the past, her quiet life becomes as impossible to reclaim as Madoc is to ignore. He's as glittering and enchanting as the ballrooms he commands. She is as shadowed and quiet as the catacombs she studies. And still his gaze finds her through every crowd. He is everything she has never let herself want, but if she can't untangle the secrets of a forgotten history, she might lose him forever. Because there is very little Madoc won’t sacrifice for his Gardens, and if the healing waters vanish into darkness, Madoc will too.
