Born in the fire-lit underground kingdom, Matilda is the youngest goddess of her clan, blessed with the humble magic of messenger. But in a land where gods often kill each other to steal power and alliances break as quickly as they are forged, Matilda must mature sooner than most. She may be known for carrying words and letters across the realms, but she harbors a secret she must keep even from her dearest allies to ensure her survival. And to complicate matters... there's a mortal boy who dreams of her, even though they've never met in the real world.

Ten years ago, Vincent de Beckett wrote to Matilda on the darkest night of his life, imploring the goddess he had befriended in his dreams for help. When his plea went unanswered, Vincent moved on, becoming the hardened and irreverent lord of the river, who had long since forgotten Matilda. That is, until she fell out of his bedroom window with a letter for him.

As fate would have it, Matilda and Vincent were destined to meet beyond dreams. There may be a chance for Matilda to rewrite the bloody paths of the gods, but at an immense sacrifice. She will have to face something she fears even more than losing her magic: being vulnerable and finally allowing herself to be loved.
