Ha pasado un mes desde que Serena vio por última vez a Matías. Un mes desde la ruptura más dolorosa de su vida. Pese al apoyo de sus amigas, las sosegadas mañanas en la librería y los paseos a orillas del lago, por las noches siente un vacío que no la deja respirar.
Durante esas madrugadas de insomnio, y también en su día a día, Serena empieza a imaginar conversaciones con Matías. Diálogos que evocan palabras que ella no había querido escuchar, frases que había decidido perdonar y muchos momentos en los que debería haberse alejado, pero no lo hizo.
Con el cálido abrazo del tiempo, los libros y la naturaleza, la joven emprende un viaje de redescubrimiento en el que conectará con su lado más íntimo y salvaje, con su propio cuerpo y deseo, y volverá a abrirse al amor para dejar atrás ese fantasma que no le permite avanzar.
Seventeen-year-old Fallon Bane was born with a devastating curse: a single touch from another person will cause her excruciating pain. Thus, she has accepted that she will die without ever being kissed, without even hugging her own father, though it breaks her heart every day.
But when her beloved father falls ill, she breaks into the magical Gilded City to find a healer fae that can save him. When handsome healer Ariyon Madden agrees to help, everything she knows about herself and her curse changes. Because during her father's healing, Ariyon reaches out and touches her bare skin. She waits for the agony… but it never comes. For the first time in her life, she imagines a new future for herself. However, that fantasy is quickly destroyed, because not only does Ariyon flee from her in disgust when he learns of her curse; he also reveals her existence to powerful fae who want to hurt her.
Fallon is then swept away to a magical academy, where she learns the terrifying truth about her family history and her dark magic. Her life and the future of fae everywhere hang in the balance, and all the while Fallon can't help but wonder if she will get to touch Ariyon Madden one more time before she dies…
