Trust Me, Darling
In a collision of fate and second chances, Ethan Alaric von Greystone—a lonely delinquent whose first life ended in tragedy—awakens as the disgraced heir to a noble barony in a world where magic whispers through ancient forests and demons lurk behind mortal masks. Granted a title, a estate, and a bride he doesn’t deserve, Ethan vows to rewrite his legacy, unaware that his newfound happiness hangs on a web of lies as sharp as a demon’s claw.
Evangeline, his unassuming wife, is anything but ordinary. Cloaked in a spell of average beauty, she is Evernight Abadeer, the Seventh General of the Demon Queen, a spy sent to infiltrate the human nobility she despises. Her mission: exploit her marriage to the baron’s reviled son to gather secrets for the coming war. But the man she expected—a drunken womanizer—is gone, replaced by a gentle soul whose adoration unravels her icy resolve.
