Crossed
A dark contemporary romance from viral BookTok and USA Today bestselling author Emily McIntire, featuring reimagined characters from popular fairy tales and other stories.
Father Cade Frédéric embodies righteousness, a man devoted to the church ever since he was raised from the streets of Paris. His dedication hides a dark secret—a monster beneath the surface, a sickness that oozes darkness and preys on the damned. Assigned to be the priest of Festivalé, Vermont, a picturesque town marred by despair, his inner darkness demands that he purge the place of its evil.
Amaya Paquette is a captivating enigma in Festivalé, spending her days caring for her younger brother and her nights transforming into Esmeralda to dance for greedy eyes and shameless lips. Craving love yet wary of companionship, she fears the pain of abandonment.
When Father Cade sees Amaya, he feels an inexplicable pull towards her, convinced that she's using witchcraft to ensnare him. She consumes his thoughts; he can neither eat, nor breathe, nor think without her invading his mind. Torn between his vows and his desire, Cade decides she must be his downfall—even if it means destroying the only woman he might ever love.
Crossed joins the Never After series as a dark and sexy reimagining of a classic tale, twisting it into an enticing new shape for mature readers.
