Baelvar is gorgeous, charming, insane, childish and mildly psychotic. He's also mated to Kett, who's brilliant, bitchy, violent and more than a little psychotic herself. It's a match made in heaven, except for one tiny detail… Kett doesn't want to be mated to anyone. The Curse of Kett has befallen everyone she's ever cared about, but impressing this fact upon Bael is a little difficult, what with all the terrifically explosive sex getting in the way. Oh, and the repeated attempts on Kett's life from persons unknown are a bit distracting too. Still, if they can just stop shagging and fighting for their lives for two seconds, surely she can convince Bael they're actually a match made in hell. Can't she?
