In a month, I've gone from magicless to one of the most powerful dark mages in the world. You'd think that would make my life easier. But all that power is only potential until I learn how to wield it, and my enemies have a huge head start. While I'm picking up every skill I can, adversaries both within Villain Academy and beyond it are working to knock me down. My fellow scions? I can count at least a couple of them among those enemies. The others... Let's just say the lines between light and dark have gotten a lot more blurred. Nothing's safe here--not my mind, my heart, my magic, or the few people who're proving themselves my allies. When the danger turns deadly, will I be able to save all of them and myself?
I must confess. I did something very naughty… And I haven’t learned my lesson. I was late on tuition… In a mountain of debt… And morally obligated to grant my mother’s dying wish to get my college degree. Which is why I was on the seedy-underbelly of the internet, cruising for a hacking job. I had no idea Hunter Davies, the elusive tech giant, was watching me, and when I passed his little impromptu pop-quiz, he sent armed men to bring me to his estate. And let me tell you…he is a piece of work! He’s disgustingly rich, with arrogance in spades. He should be in jail for what he’s done to me! But…he offered me a job. One that could make all my problems disappear. And as much as I hate to admit it…he’s flippin’ other-worldly levels of gorgeous! Now, I have one week to solve a 24-year-old cold case, or else I go home empty-handed. Just one catch—I have to pretend to be his girlfriend in front of his parents, who are itching for grandkids… I agree to his terms, and somehow, one thing leads to another…and I wake up in his bed. This is not how the job was supposed to go. I hate men—they can’t be trusted! But the more I learn about Hunter, the less my logic makes sense. I’m supposed to be solving one of the greatest mysteries of our time, not falling in love! And as I'm about to find out, if I don’t figure this all out soon, it could cost us everything…
Arriving in the kingdom of Arelon to enter a marriage of state, princess Sarene discovers that her intended has died and that she is considered his widow, leaving her a lone force against the imperial ambitions of a religious fanatic.

Can I make it? Can I stay in the lap of luxury for months until the project is complete? Or will Drake’s condescending remarks push me towards taking a position reporting the news with my ta-tas out? One thing’s for sure, we never ever anticipated humanity-ending AI to get unleashed upon the city. Oh, man. I was just beginning to like him.
