Nineteen-year-old Serafina Bell has spent years trapped under her cruel stepmother, Arabesque--a powerful Dark witch who siphons her magic and treats her as a servant. But when Arabesque arranges a marriage to the Vampire King's chosen groom, Seri seizes her chance to escape. She strikes a dangerous bargain: she will go willingly, but only if she can take two innocents with her -- her newborn half-sister and a tormented dire wolf in Arabesque's captivity.
Casimir, Zane, and Koa Cimmerian--dhampir sons of the Vampire King--want a beloved, not a wife. But when their father offers them a rare opportunity--marry for a year in return for total freedom from court politics--they agree. They expect an easy arrangement with a disposable bride.
What they get is Seri.
Battered, bruised, and left for dead on their doorstep, she is nothing like they imagined. Especially when she opens her eyes... and the truth is revealed.
