Chance Coraggio doesn't remember anything before he could walk through walls and that includes the crazy woman telling him he's been asleep for nearly a century. The life he should've lived has been stolen. All the people he has ever loved are dead—and it turns out the crazy woman isn't as crazy as he'd hoped.
But waking Chance is only half the battle. Now, both are bound by blood to a demon's curse. To break free, they must find out who is coming for them and why. Because the only reason for a sleeping curse that has lasted almost a century lies somewhere in a past that Chance can't remember.
