In this dark and decadent sequel to Tonight, I Burn, a witch finds herself face to face with death as she stands at the center of a magical rebellion and back to back with her enemies as she falls deeper into a seductive romance. Penny Albright has burned night after night to keep her soul free of Malin's contract. Now, she's at the stake again, and this time, it's her freewill about to burn. As the ashes settle over the temple inferno, Halstett faces the Samhain ball and attendance is mandatory​. At midnight, when the veil between Life and Death is at its thinnest, the Warden means to destroy magic and the witches who wield it. With her family missing and her friends lost, Penny turns to the Sorcerer chained on the mysterious ninth floor of the library for aid. He offers a deal: a legion to fight the Warden in exchange for her blood. Just one drop into the eternal fires will end the Warden's reign and set the Sorcerer free. But as Alice's visions fail and Malin fights the lifeline bond Penny forged to save him, one drop of blood might destroy them all. And with the Warden using Penny’s circle of Resistance witch friends as a shield, Penny is forced to choose between the friends she loves and the covens she belongs to. A single night might spark a war that will tear the world—or Penny's heart—apart.​

Perfect for fans of Hannah Whitten's For the Wolf, Jennifer Armentrout's From Blood and Ash, and Rachel Gillig's One Dark Window. Penny Albright has burned at the stake under the Warden and his Gilded Army night after night. He means to destroy magic and seal the veil between Life and Death forever and he has every tool he needs to do it. The Warden has stolen everything that Penny cares about- her friends, family, lovers, and now, even her freewill will be sacrificed if she fails to defeat the Warden and his evil lust for immortality once and for all. A resistance movement has been brewing in the shadows of Life and when Penny takes her place at the helm, she will be thrust into the realm of Death once again, this time with Malin, the devastatingly handsome lord of Death, by her side. Penny will not rest until the Warden is stripped from his throne. But soon she will come to learn- the price of saving Life means shedding a fair amount of blood.
