Publisher's summary

Hugo is concerned and confused about adopting back his daughter after so many years apart. What if she doesn't recognize him? What if the little girl can't accept her father's hidden, beastly nature? Monica soothes those fears, and they soon adopt Clara. But with a toddler in the house and a baby on the way, Hugo's mind turns back to his curse. He doesn't want to burden his growing family with it anymore and seeks a way to destroy it. But finding a capable person with strong magic proves harder than expected.

When Monica comes fully clean to her father and her best friend, Martha, about Hugo's true nature, the little family is divided. Martha is revolted that her best friend would stay with a man who hides such terrible secrets. Monica's father is saddened to find out, but also believes that Monica should stand by her family. Monica realizes that, despite being a mail order bride, she has come to love deeply the man who paid for her, and that despite all the danger she genuinely wants to have his child.

When Monica and Clara suddenly fall ill, the pressure rises. Hugo is certain that his curse is affecting his daughter and his unborn son and begins to travel seeking a cure. Despite her illness, Monica insists on staying by his side. As darkness is revealed within the mansion, Monica and Clara become weaker and sicker, and Hugo and Monica desperately hunt down a cure. Is it too late, or will they find someone - anyone - who can lift the curse of transformation from the family?
