BLURB from Goodreads
The professor should be off-limits.
But he’s hot. And I’m a bad girl. Lucky for me, he doesn’t play by the rules.
Neither do I.
I used to be a
princess; that was before I was murdered.
The reaper who took
my soul. He’s my professor. And, well, the experience of taking a soul is
quite… pleasurable. He wants me. I crave him. It’s against the rules, but do
either of us care?

EXCERPT
"We'll be
fine." Leila had seen the invitee list a dozen times growing up. She knew
everyone who showed and everyone invited who didn't. Wynter had been right, it
would not be difficult to slip into the party. "Are we ready?"
"Almost."
Wynter walked up to Leila and slid his hand into his pants pocket. He pulled
out a necklace. The pendant was round and made from bronze. The center was a
pleasant sea of rich purples and blues, mixed together with sparkles that
dazzled in the light. Leila turned the charm in her hands, and the colors
changed from each angle, revealing a warm mix of pink and orange hues like a
gorgeous sunset. "Even though you're no longer a princess, you will always
look royal." He took the pendant from her hands and fastened the antique
bronze chain around her neck.
"Thank
you." A real smile met her lips. She hadn't felt this content since before
she died. He had a way of making her feel special. Had he done that with all
his students or just her? She hadn't noticed his attention on anyone else.
"One last
surprise." Wynter's eyes twinkled. He led the girls to the front door and
opened it. Outside, waited a horse-drawn carriage. Jasper sat up front, ready
to drive the coach.
"Where'd
you get a carriage?" Leila asked.
"It wasn't
being used anymore," Jasper said.
Wynter offered
his hand to Leila as she climbed into the carriage. He did the same for
Violetta before he stepped in last.
"I doubt
that. There's nothing wrong with the carriage," Leila mused, staring up at
the ceiling. There were no holes, no evidence that it had toppled over and been
smashed against the ground.
"It's what
was wrong with the owners," Wynter said and sat back in the carriage
beside Leila. "They died."
"Oh,"
Leila said, and the carriage jolted forward. The horses' hooves thumped against
grass. "Jasper, did you steal this carriage from a reap?"
"I don't
think he can hear you." Wynter grinned. "Yeah, he may have borrowed
it. It's not like the guy will be needing it again. Besides, you can't arrive
at the ball riding a horse. It would look unsophisticated. Trust me, we'd never
get in."
Leila sighed.
She hadn't thought about their arrival. "Just tonight. Then we return the
carriage." She didn't want to risk the royal council finding out what they
were up to. Not only were they crashing a ball, but they were also stealing
from the dead. Were there any rules left that Leila hadn't broken?
"Are you
nervous?" Wynter nudged her thigh with his leg.
"Why would
I be?" Her knee bounced anxiously as her fingers twitched against her lap.
She'd been trying to convince herself all afternoon that it was no big deal,
Mara wouldn't recognize her.
"No reason
at all." Wynter smiled. "We're going out tonight to have fun."
