The world: ending.

The escape: magic portals.

The Cost: Everything.

Amber Moore has screwed up a lot in her life. She's due a win, and maybe this is it: a magic portal to lands unknown, created and run by fairy-tale monsters. Supposedly, to use one means slavery, but as far as she's concerned, survival is a decent trade for her freedom.

Servitude is not what she finds.

Étienne is sad. Handsome. Lonely. Also, a vampire... and she is determined to befriend him, finding hope for them both. In the middle of an apocalypse complicated by curses, beauty, and unexpected romance, what difference can one woman's choices make? As it turns out, all the difference in the world.
