Mass and Jennifer L. Armentrout. Servant. Seductress. Spy. All Phèdre nó Delaunay has known is a life of servitude - until now. When her bond is purchased by a nobleman, Anafiel Delaunay, he transforms her into a charming courtesan and skillful spy. He's also the first to recognize what she is: one touched by the god Kushiel's dart, chosen to forever experience pain and pleasure as one. But when Phèdre uncovers a plot that threatens the very foundations of her homeland, she's thrown into a world of deadly courtiers, heroic traitors and one truly Machiavellian villainess.
