"It's one or the other of us, isn't it? We're stuck in this thing now, and we have to see it through to the end."
Eva, embittered, heartless, and centuries old, has a tower to protect. She lives alone on her modest landholding deep in the forest, undisturbed except for the occasional misguided but well-meaning knight trying to rescue the princess in her tower.
300 centuries on, and she's certain she is all but forgotten. Knights have moved on from princess hunting, and magic is slowly receding from the land as the people move on to newer, more modern ways. Part of the old world, Eva is set to fade away along with the last of the magic.
Find out what happens when she comes up against Theo, a charming magician who refuses to be hamstrung by his own mortality, or Eva's fierceness. He is determined to storm her tower and steal her treasure, whatever the cost. He brings life back into Eva's world, igniting her passion as she fiercely counters every single one of his efforts to steal her treasure or rescue her princess.
In this adult fairy tale, two people fight against falling in love with each other, locked firmly into a life or death struggle that will leave only one of them alive.
