Edie has been relentlessly bullied, and she's come to the end of
her rope. Mysterious and beautiful boy Kian shows up to make her
dreams come true. That is, if she signs an agreement with him and
his magical faction. She's skeptical, but decides she has nothing
to lose. Her desire for revenge against her bullies outweighs
everything. And she knows exactly what she wants from Kian. Over
the summer he makes her beautiful, transforms her. She'll be able
to slip into the crowd that devastated her life. She'll destroy
them from the inside. As it all unfolds, Edie learns more about
Kian's world and what it is their agreement requires. His world is
a dark world, filled with cold and harsh people. Like Edie, Klan
has a dark past and she wants so badly to trust him completely, but
something's standing in her way.
