Ava is a brilliant engineer, envied by all. She’s also utterly alone, cloistered and controlled by her power-hungry family. When the only man she ever dared to want breaks through their unspoken divide and reveals he's always wanted her too, everything she thought she understood shatters.
And then he disappears.
Robbed of a future she’d barely allowed herself to dream of, she buries her grief by marrying the most eligible bachelor in their dying city, Silrovia. He’s sexy and dangerous, their life amongst the elite filled with endless decadence Ava never knew existed.
A perfect family, a gorgeous husband, and her dream career—it’s everything she ever wanted, until she peels back the glittering veneer. Behind diamonds and high-society smiles lies a nightmare of absolute corruption, forcing Ava to realize she's been tricked into a golden cage for her new family's profit. Her marriage is irrevocable and her time is limited, her life only safe as long as she is useful.
To escape the monsters surrounding her, Ava must hunt down her beloved and forge an alliance built on revenge.
The catch?
Death has already visited the man her soul longs for, and to survive, Ava must make a desperate attempt to piece together a miracle of flesh, metal, and devotion.
