Darius knows dames are only good for one thing…
Trouble.
And the beautiful and mysterious Countess Ravenna is definitely the rule rather than the exception.
Tales of black magic at her brothel abound, and despite his determination to prove that magic is nothing more than a hoax, Officer Darius Romero becomes entangled in Ravenna's seductive spell. Is he just the latest victim of her feminine wiles or are there more sinister forces at work?
For Ravenna, getting involved with the policeman looking into her could prove disastrous. Doubts consume her as she navigates a world where deceit and desire are entwined. Will she be able to maintain her facade while her heart yearns for the very man who poses the greatest threat?
But when a customer mysteriously meets his demise within Ravenna's establishment, whispers of a curse ignite like wildfire, threatening to destroy her business and jeopardize their burgeoning romance.
Will they unravel the secrets that haunt them, or will the forces conspiring against them tear them apart forever?
