Lady Gemma Ashbourne seemingly has it all. She's young, gorgeous, and rich. But underneath her glittering façade, Gemma is deeply sad. Years ago, her sister Mara was taken to the Middlemist to guard against treacherous magic. Her mother abandoned the family. Her father and sister often forget Gemma exists. Worst of all, she is the only Ashbourne to possess no magic. Then Gemma meets the devastatingly handsome Talan d'Astier. His family annihilated themselves, seduced by a demon, and Talan is determined to redeem their honor.

As attacks on the Middlemist increase, something terrifying is awakening in Gemma, drawing her inexorably toward Talan and an all-consuming passion that could destroy her—or show her the true strength of her power.
