Weeks of being hunted, a night of being emptied —an immortal hunger with her name on it.

Jade Westerly runs a gothic bookshop andhas spent half her life chasing fanged fantasies on the page. What she wants from the Midnight Den is not romance. It’s an ancient, beautiful, feral vampire who will hunt her, watch her, drink her to the edge of dying, and make the claiming feel real enough that she forgets she paid for it.

Her assigned monster is Lord Nikolai de Luthaine: four centuries old, impeccably controlled until he isn’t, speaking into her mind, rearranging her life… and her free will. She belongs to him now.

Jade asked for authentic.

And Lord de Luthaine doesn’t play any other way.
