Isabella DeLourde was raised to be perfect — obedient, pure, and silent — the opposite of her sister, Geneviève, the scandalous beauty who spends her nights with married men and her days condemning Isabella’s romance with a humble artist. When her family steals her fortune and arranges her marriage to a powerful count, Isabella’s dreams are shattered. Locked away in her room, she realizes that virtue has been her prison and sin, her only key. On the eve of her forced wedding, she makes a choice that will echo through eternity. She summons the Devil — and he answers. The next morning, her family finds her farewell letter: a confession, a curse, and a vow to live freely, even if it damns her soul. Isabella vanishes, leaving only whispers of a dark rider seen in the mist and a woman’s laughter carried by the wind.
When love is forbidden by virtue’s voice, sin becomes her only salvation.
