***IMPORTANT: All orders will be shipped out after August 4 Blurb: One curse. Four mortal women. Seven days before the gods are banished to Purgatory forever. Shadow’s whole life is flipped upside down after her boyfriend breaks up with her at a coffee shop. Now, she must survive in a world where bloodmagic is currency, and she has none. Enter Augustine. He's handsome, charming, and just cynical (and witty) enough to capture Shadow’s attention. At first glance, he seems like the perfect answer to her problems. That is, until she learns that he’s secretly the God of Dreams, and he lives in a castle with all of his crazy siblings. After being imprisoned within the castle walls, Shadow quickly learns she isn’t alone. Three other women share the same fated rules: fall in love with your assigned deity by week's end, and your life will be spared. Fail? And your life will be forfeited. So naturally, the women make a plan. Don't fall in love, and the curse will condemn all the gods to Purgatory. If someone falls in love? The others will suffer the consequences. But that’s the tricky thing about love, isn’t it? It never plays by the rules.*********************** Tropes: 🖤enemies-to-lovers 💖bitchy besties 🐉dragon shifters 👑gods & royalty 🏰cursed castles ✨bloodmagic 💋love triangles over a 3-book series 🥀Beauty and the Beast retelling Spice level: 2.5 🌶️🌶️🌶️ ********************** Trigger warnings: Dear reader,Please be aware that this book explores themes of grief and self-sacrifice.
