Deep within the mountain stronghold of the Cridhe Clan, a statue waits. Cold marble by day… but by night, she stirs. Thavros, the clan’s researcher, can’t look away from the woman carved in stone. Each night, she breathes again, flesh and warmth for just a few fleeting hours. Drawn to her beauty and her secrets, he finds himself guarding her as fiercely as if she were already his. But some curses aren’t meant to be broken. And when desire ignites between them, the truth of what she is—and why she was trapped in stone—could either save the clan… or doom them all. A darkly romantic tale of mystery, magic, and a love strong enough to wake the dead.
