Twisted Vows

Step into the mysterious, gothic world of Blackwood Academy eighteen years prior to the events of the New York Times bestselling Immortal Consequences and Ruinous Ends duology!

When Wren Loughty finds herself dropped outside the gates of Blackwood Academy, the infamous magical boarding school located on the fringes of the afterlife, she quickly realizes that she's dead. Worse, she's stuck between life and death, eternally tasked with learning the magical skills required to guide lost souls to the Other Side.

And her first assignment? A class project with the boy known as the notorious "Demon of Blackwood," Augustine Hughes.

August doesn't do friends. He has his own reasons for wanting to get close to the new girl…reasons that are quickly becoming more complicated the more time he spends with her.

As Wren and August navigate the darkly enchanting Blackwood campus and their cutthroat fellow students, an undeniable connection grows between them. But some connections can be twisted. And some betrayals can’t be undone.

Please note that Twisted Vows contains spoilers for Immortal Consequences and Ruinous Ends and is best read after Book 2 of the Souls of Blackwood Academy series.
