'I loved the book!! Fantastic ending to a fantastic series' Jodi Picoult

When the gods make the rules, the players must choose: sacrifice their love to save the world ... or choose love and let it burn?

Six months after saving their island from destruction, Alessa is ready for her happily ever after with her former bodyguard. But Dante is haunted by a conviction that the gods aren't finished with them yet. And without his powers, the next kiss from Alessa could kill him.

Desperate for answers, they search for the exiled ghiotte in hopes of restoring Dante's powers. But Alessa is hiding a secret of her own, and their destination holds more dangers than anyone bargained for. In the mysterious city of the banished, Dante will uncover lies and ghosts from his past that force him to ask himself: Which side am I on?

When the gods reveal their final test, Dante and Alessa will be the world's last defence. But if they are the keys to saving the world, will their love be the price of victory?

This Cursed Light is the heart-pounding sequel to This Vicious Grace โ€“ perfect for fans of Stephanie Garber, Leigh Bardugo and Kerri Maniscalco.
