Sadie's world is crumbling beneath her, and she's starting to wish for a way out of her lonely life in Seattle. But when her sister Blair arrives unannounced in the middle of the night, covered in blood and carrying a glowing medallion, Sadie has no idea her wish is about to come true in the most violent of ways. All of hell is after the amulet's vast power. And when Blair puts it around Sadie's neck, all of hell is suddenly after her as well. Separated from Blair and with hardly any information to go on, Sadie finds herself surrounded by four stunning men-the warring demon brothers of the Underworld. The princes hate each other with a passion, and yet they're bound to her side, captivated and ensnared by her magic. In an instant, the amulet gives Sadie everything she ever wanted-wealth, power, even a fortress with a mind of its own. But she also inherits the amulet's enemies, and they're about to kick down her door. Sadie has no idea who she can trust-except for her men. As she spends time with each of the supernatural princes who won't leave her the hell alone, she falls for them. Hard. Though they can't stand each other, she can't imagine ruling her new kingdom without them all. But this is the Underworld, the land of monsters and warlocks, of angels and deadly treachery.
