When Isabella Moretti’s father gambles away everything—including her—to the most feared mafia boss in New Orleans, she expects a fate worse than death. But Luca Devereaux is no ordinary crime lord. He is a vampire, a creature of lethal power and insatiable hunger. And now, she belongs to him.
Luca doesn’t just demand her obedience—he demands everything. Her blood. Her body. Her surrender. His bite is an addiction, his touch a curse, and his obsession with her… deadly. But when a rival vampire syndicate targets Isabella to break him, she must decide: fight against the monster who owns her, or give in to the dark pleasure of his savage desire.
Her heart says run.
Her body begs to stay.
And Luca always takes what he wants.
In his world, love is power. And he will kill to keep her.
But can she survive being loved by a monster?
