This is my first book by this author, and it was an amazing dark, gothic, and mysterious book. I don't want to give any of the secrets away, but I loved Corvina and Vad's story, and their chemistry was off the charts!
The mysteries of Verenmore lie dormant until Corvina accepts her admission into the school for those with dark pasts. As the story unfolds and secrets are revealed, I couldn't put the book down until the past and present collied, and Corvina helps to unravel the darkness within.
Vad is a student/teacher at the school and takes interest in the girl with purple eyes. As he tries to keep his distance, he quickly learns that he is drawn to her for reasons he can't comprehend. He realizes he must keep her safe from his past but knows that it may destroy what he holds close.
