Engaged to a man who mistook dominance for love, Poppy learned how to smile, nod, and suffocate without complaint. Until compliance nearly kills her.
When she's brutally attacked and left in an alley, Poppy encounters Kit. He’s cold. Handsome. Unforgiving. But he offers her a choice that she can’t refuse: accept the Robes of Death and live...or disappear forever.
Now bound to a power that hears every soul’s final plea for help, Poppy must survive the transformation without losing the one thing Death was never meant to have—her humanity.
As Death, she could use her power for revenge and stop being the quiet, compliant girl everyone else needs her to be. But standing between her and vengeance is Kit. He’s ruthless, yet he reminds her of a time when she enjoyed life and used to smile. As Poppy’s powers grow stronger, will Kit’s love be enough to save her soul?
Life or Death? What if she could have both?
