WHO ARE WE TO QUESTION FATE? Desperate for a final taste of freedom before marrying the stranger chosen by his parents, brooding Pace, Second Prince of the Cupids, sneaks into the human world with his friends. When they encounter dangerous, dark beings that should not exist, he's left with more questions than answers. Escaping to the human world for a moment's relief from her cruel and murderous family, Sirain, Crown Princess of the Chaos, is shocked when she and her fellow warriors run into Pace and his friends. Not only are Cupids real-they're messing with Fate. Since the dawn of time, Cupids and Chaos have faithfully delivered Fate's orders to a warring human world. Sirain knows better than to get caught up with the mysterious Cupid who's caught her eye. After all, he wants her dead. But sometimes Fate has plans of its own.

Fate is cruel. But so is hope. Fear and loneliness are Sirain’s only reward for proving her claim to the throne of Helle. Suffering from a broken heart and burdened by guilt, her bleak future worsens when the Fates issue a kill order for her father. If she wants to save him, Sirain must endure opening old wounds and face the consequences of her choices. Risking everything for love has sent Pace’s life up in flames. Now, beholden to his older brother and lumbered with a permanent shadow, he’s more determined than ever to uncover the truths he’s confident rest with the mysterious Fates. But when his parents make a world-shattering announcement, Pace must put his trust in the one Cupid who could turn his life to ash.
