Although she’s spent her life in the human realm, Iris has always lived in the shadows.

When the chance to escape presents itself, it seems too good to pass up. Even if it means traveling to another realm—a realm filled with mysterious monsters, no less.

Anything is better than this, right?

Damen is everyone’s favorite prince. Charming, funny, and quick to bring levity to any situation.

But everyone who’s close to him knows that Damen is capable of being so much more. Their opinions have never mattered too much to him before, because why make life hard when it could be easy?

Until he meets someone whose opinion is everything to him. Who has never had life easy. Who believes in him more than he believes in himself.

For Iris, there’s no obstacle Damen won’t face.

Boring. Quiet. Glum.

Meera has been called many things over the years, and for the most, they don't bother her. She'd rather be boring than draw attention to herself, because she knows exactly how dangerous the wrong attention can be.

But when a ghost from her past pops up to haunt her in her new life, Meera remembers what a powerful tool anger can be.

Sensible. Reliable. Steady.

Verner doesn't rock the boat, and he always tries to do right by everyone—especially the cautious but kind ex-Hunter he's trying to befriend.

But when it comes to Meera, Verner doesn't know how to be sensible. For Meera, he'll risk everything.

Tallulah is confident, happy, and looking for love.

At least, on the outside.

Evrin is kind, thoughtful, and has plenty of love to give.

At least, on the inside.

In a world where it feels like they're the only ones who don't know where they belong, can Tallulah and Evrin find that sense of home in each other?

Or will they be too afraid to take a chance?

Inika has been given everything, and yet happiness has always felt out of her reach.

Blake has worked for everything he has, and happiness has always felt like an optional extra.

It's meant to be fun. It's meant to be easy. Itches will be scratched, and no strings will be attached.

All Blake and Inika have to do is not catch feelings. And considering how very different they are, how hard could that be?
