*Fourth book in "The Deal Maker" series* Joanna has been living the seemingly blissful life as the wife of Matthew Foster; making friends with vampires, attending every event as the perfect trophy wife, and going on the occasional romantic getaway. Her life has been so blissful, she has almost forgotten everything Matthew has done. But Joanna quickly is reminded of Matthew's dark and deceitful ways after a horrific discovery that completely changes everything. After uncovering Matthew's dark secrets, Joanna must decide whether to use them against Matthew or to continue the blissful lie of a contracted marriage. But will Joanna's feelings create further complications?

I was sure the worst thing to ever happen to me would be being kidnapped, and sure, that was pretty bad. However, what was worse was being kidnapped, held captive for years, and then being auctioned off to the highest bidder. I thought maybe I had caught a little break when I found out that me and five other girls were being sold to royalty, but I should have known something about that wasn't right either. Under the cover of eternal darkness, and deep beneath the ground, was a whole world I never even dreamed existed in my wildest dreams. It was a world that promised to be more than anything I could imagine. The people who bought us told us we would have the luxurious life of a princess, but there were only two catches... 1. We would be competing against each other for the affection of the Prince who would change our whole lives by picking one of us to rule at his side. 2. That prince just happened to be a vampire.

Colors danced behind my eyes, until the world fell into a haze of dark mist. Black fissures of power within arm's reach. Mine. Magic slammed into me, endless and vast like a tidal wave coming in and crushing over my head. I took it, absorbed it, glutted myself on it because it felt good. No consequences. No pain.
