โYou pitiful woman, you dare lecture me? Do you know what it cost me to even hold onto my mind? To my humanity?! You, who has barely glimpsed the surface. You, whoโs seen nothing of the sacrifices.โ

Chinese Princess, Katherine Xu is destined to marry a man whose life is shrouded in mystery and rumour โ a man who does not show his face within polite society. Dorian Storm, the mad Duke of Ashwood is a recluse, and perhaps, something far worse.
He does not want a wife. He does not need a wife.
For Ashwood harbours secrets no bride should ever uncover. Inside the castle walls lie horrors born of his own hands, and Katherine soon discovers that in this marriage, the greatest threat is not the monsters growing outside the bedchamber, it is what resides within it.

Advance Praise
"Eve takes the reader back to Georgian England where a young Chinese princess, named Katherine is thrust into the gossiping world of the ton and straight into the arms of the handsome Duke, Dorian Storm.
But all is not as it seems. True to Eve's usual style the action, intrigue and romance comes thick and fast as I stumbled to keep up with the pace of the unfolding plot. But that's what you get when you devour a novel in every spare minute you get.โ
- G. Jones (Arc Reader)
Eve Devereaux has done it again! With Wallflowers and Demons, she delivers a wickedly seductive, genre-bending tale that solidifies her reign as an unmatched storyteller. While a sharp departure from her TFK trilogy, this book is every bit as deliciously unhinged and delightfully depraved as fans could hope for.
If you have watch or read Bridgerton imagine that but darker lol. Set in the haunting beauty of the 1800s, the world-building is so immersive you'll swear you're wandering the shadowy halls of Ashwood Estate yourself. This is Monster Smut meets Gothic Romance in the most thrilling way possible.
At its heart is an unforgettable pair: Katherine Xu, a Chinese princess thrust into a perilous marriage, is no damsel in distress. She's a fierce heroine who wields a blade and holds her own against her new demon husband. And Duke Dorian Storm? This demon lord has a mouth on him that is filthy, coupled with a powerful need to protect his people. Watching their dynamic evolve from brief enemies to undeniable allies and then passionate lovers is a wild, satisfying ride.
The action starts immediately and never lets up, feeling less like a book and more like watching an exhilarating horror/action movie unfold. Packed with sharp twists and unholy chemistry, this dark regency horror will leave you gasping, grinning, and desperate for more. Katherine and Dorian truly are a match made in hell.
If you're ready for a fast-paced, spicy, and sometimes scary adventure, Wallflowers and Demons is your next obsession. Dive into the madnessโif you dare.
