Synopsis
**I am Rosie Miller and at the age of ten, I was cursed.** Because of my parents' debt, I was forced into silence and now every word, every laugh, was a weapon used against me. By nineteen I had come to understand that I would have no choice but to follow in my parents' footsteps. Get a soul-sucking job reserved for low-levels like me, keep my head down, and die alone. **That was until I got a letter one day welcoming me to the most prestigious demon academy in the entire country.** I knew that when I opened that letter, it was too good to be true. There was no way after thousands of years of separation between high-levels and low-levels that I would ever be given such a golden opportunity. **Meeting them only proved my suspicions to be correct.** A bloodthirsty gangster. A child of a high-ranking demon official with a penance for blackmail. And last but not least a witch who seems to be called by the power my curse exudes. Becoming tangled with them will probably be the most reckless thing that I have ever done in my life, **but will it be worth finally breaking my curse after nine years?** ***CW for all books are on author website***
