About the Book
“A riveting Game of Thrones meets Arabian Nights love story.” – US Weekly
Every dawn brings horror to a different family in a land ruled by a killer. Khalid, the eighteen-year-old Caliph of Khorasan, takes a new bride each night only to have her executed at sunrise. Everything changes when sixteen-year-old Shahrzad volunteers to marry him.
With a plan to survive and seek revenge for the murder of her best friend, Shahrzad uses her wit and determination to make it past dawn. But as she gets closer to the truth, she finds herself drawn to the very boy she set out to destroy.
As secrets unfold, Shahrzad begins to question everything and becomes determined to break the cycle of violence once and for all.

Parking: Metered street parking is available. Parking across the street is typically the best option.
