"I asked the vampire to save me. He asked for my daughter instead."Elena Mercer never imagined her father's desperate bargain would change her life forever. When her father makes a deal with Lucien, a powerful vampire king, Elena becomes the price of his survival. She has no choice but to enter the world of a man who is as dangerous as he is captivating-and who seems determined to claim the bond between them.
Lucien should have been nothing more than the vampire who saved her father's life. Instead, he becomes the man Elena can't stop thinking about. But Lucien carries secrets from a dark past, and the closer Elena gets to him, the more she realizes that their bargain is about far more than her father's life. Because some bargains are sealed in blood. And some loves come with a price neither of them is prepared to pay.
