Once there, Rosalie discovers a shocking truth about her past...and that what troubles this island goes far beyond the laws of nature.

But as her attraction to Liam grows, she's confronted by myths and legends about her family's origins that forces her to reconcile science and magic in order to save the island, and everyone on it, from an ancient evil. To do so, Rosalie will have to rely on her own power, instead of logic or science, if she is to free Liam from his curse while keeping the evil from consuming her and everyone else she's ever loved.
