A Heartless can't fall in love.

Arden Archer is cursed: she can see the Unseelie fae, a gift that sends the women in her family to an early grave. Then a handsome and dark fae prince makes her a tempting promise: if she offers herself as his Tithe, the curse will be lifted and her younger sister will be saved from madness.

But there can be only one Tithe.

Every seven years, the faerie regents pit cursed humans against one another, offering salvation to both the victor and the fae. This year, Arden is one of those human competitors—a Heartless—and with the help of the Midnight Prince, she intends to win.

That is, until a striking blond boy walks into her life, unearthing secrets and planting doubt. Can her dark prince be trusted? Is there more to the Tithe than what he has told her? Has Arden really locked away her heart?

Venture into the darkest part of the forest where the darkest of the fae await...
their Tithe.

A dark fantasy, a faerie tale of forbidden love.
