(18+) *Completed* Kidnappings were things only seen on television, and definitely not something anyone would expect to happen to them. And human auctions? Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when it wasn't them being taken in and sold. Eva Whelan was the same - someone who often watched the news and shook her head at the sight of another child, or young adult, being taken in the middle of the night. But never once did she think it would be her. Until it was. Until she was the one being taken and sold off to the highest bidder. ~~~ Highest Rankings: #1 Romance (5/3/20) #3 Fiction (4/15/21) #1 Horror (11/23/18) #1 Thriller (12/22/18)

Having control over the whole city, and access to everything (and everyone) that comes with it, Magnus gathers all the eligible women his men can find, determined to find who can take the spot as his Queen. ---------- Esther is a beautiful young woman, an orphaned foreigner in the city of London. She belongs to a tribe that is shunned by the Capital. For people do not like what they do not understand. Despite her best efforts not to get caught up in Magnus' drama, she finds herself right in the middle of it, getting chosen to be Magnus' next Queen. Esther knows she must keep her identity a secret from Magnus, or she will face dire consequences. Does Esther manage to break open Magnus' arrogant and self-absorbed heart? Or does she risk exposing herself as a woman from the tribe of Yahweh? A retelling of an Ancient tale, unlike anything before.
