Summary
Dee Moreno is out of options. Her home life sucks (to put it mildly), and she's about to get booted from her boarding school for lack of funds. But this is a world where demons exist, and the demons are there to make deals: one human body part in exchange for one wish come true. The demon who Dee approaches doesn't trade in the usual arms and legs, however -- he's only interested in her heart. And his deal comes with other strings attached. Dee is just the latest addition to a group of damaged misfits, all pledged to the demon's service. It's a nightmare far bigger, far more monstrous than anything she ever could have imagined. Reality is turned on its head, and Dee has only her fellow "heartless," including the charming but secretive James Lancer, to keep her grounded. But as something like love grows between Dee and James, she begins to wonder: Can she give James her heart when it's no longer hers to give?
