Rose. A young English girl finds herself abandoned in a strange land when her father, a travelling scholar, dies unexpectedly. Unfamiliar with the ways of the land in which she finds herself and afraid for her safety when she ends up at the mercy of a cruel man, she seeks help from the first person who crosses her path, a mysterious man in a mask.

Erik. He doesn’t like people, he doesn’t trust people. He’s full of anger and resentment. But he knows what it is to be alone and afraid. He’s capable of horrific violence, but also of extreme tenderness. He doesn’t know what to do with the orphaned girl who lands, quite literally, on his doorstep. But as much as he wants to protect her, not only from the evil around her, but from the evil within himself, he knows he will only end up hurting her in the end.

She must overcome her fears to trust him. He must overcome his demons to trust himself. She knows that love can save…he knows that love can destroy…
