I always imagined I’d have the perfect wedding. What I didn’t expect was a bloody massacre.
Now I’m locked in this labyrinth of a castle with my new husband. He’s reclusive and miserable. Worst of all, he has a list of rules, expecting me to sit quietly so I can play the role of his pretty little wife.
But I'm not the type of person who can sit quietly.
Obviously, I need to escape, but it’s risky–there are people I fear more than my husband within the walls of this castle. And as infuriating as he is, his obsession with keeping me safe borders on madness.
So I do the only thing left: I pretend to fall in love with him, hoping that will give me enough leverage to get out of this place.
But with every day that passes, every night we share together… and every rule I break; the line between pretending and reality blurs.
And I’m no longer sure I want to escape.
Hollow Deception is book 2 of the Kings of Ruin series, but this book can be read standalone. Tropes include arranged marriage, forced proximity, age gap. No cheating. No cliffhanger. HEA.
