With her father framed and jailed, and her stepfamily gone with everything they could carry, Mira Kessler accepts a deal no one else will take. She will marry Audrey Ashford, the scarred and bedridden heiress of Chicago's richest family, and carry her child. In return, the Ashfords will set her father free. Every night her new wife comes to her bed in total darkness, wrapped in bandages, her voice a broken rasp. Every day Audrey's cold, infuriating sister Jude warns her to run. The closer Mira gets to her wife in the dark, the more she finds herself drawn to the sister in the light. What she doesn't know is that they're the same woman. Audrey can't have children, and the Ashfords never planned to free her father. And the marriage license Mira signed without reading has someone else's name on it.
