In a world where blood is currency and power is eternal, one girl may hold the key to freedom.

When Seraphine Calder is dragged to the infamous Bleeding Market to be auctioned as a blood servant, she defies the vampires bidding for her life. But her defiance only makes her more desirable-to two of the most powerful vampires in the realm. In a fierce bidding war, the enigmatic Lord Dorian Veyrith wins her for a staggering twenty thousand crowns, binding Seraphine to his ancient, secret-laden household.

At Veyrith Keep, Seraphine finds herself navigating a perilous web of politics, power, and deadly secrets. Her rare blood triggers strange powers and raises dangerous questions about her father's past-a man she learns was part of a covert organization studying vampire weaknesses. As Seraphine's connection to Dorian deepens, so does her suspicion. Especially when the ruthless Thorn Queen, Vivienne Blackthorn, reemerges with chilling truths and an irresistible offer of protection.

Caught between two powerful factions-one fighting for reform, the other clinging to control-Seraphine discovers her blood might be the key to breaking the magical bonds enslaving generations of blood servants. With a revolution brewing and her own life at risk, she must choose between love and liberation, survival and sacrifice.

Rich with gothic intrigue, dark romance, and high-stakes rebellion, The Thorn Bargain is a gripping fantasy debut about power, choice, and what it means to be truly free.

The Roseblood Clan. Three thousand years worth of magic cursing through their people's blood. Long before the Bennetts, before the Travellers, The Other Side and the Ancestors, there had been the Roseblood clan. Witches forged from the dying breath of a dragon in the centre of Scotland. The blood of the dragon was the legacy of their people. Yet, stories and history could be twisted by the victors of the many battles that had plagued the clan. A war between kin had destroyed the legacy of the Roseblood Clan. After a thousand years, their rule of magic had come to a halt. For over two thousand years, a story had been spun. The story of the evil siphoner. The abomination that had ruined their line. Yet, the truth loomed, threatening to reveal the true reason as to why siphoners existed. What their true purpose was. Were they abominations, the bastards of the magical world or were they meant to take power from those undeserving to ensure it was not misused? Only the victor of the battle gets to tell the tale. Athena Flora Roseblood was far from a victor. Being a firstborn Roseblood had cursed her like many others before her. Firstborn women in their line were not meant to meet their first breath of air, they were destined to die, to be sacrificed within the womb to help empower their coven, yet for the first time in two thousand years, a firstborn woman had come screaming into the world. Athena was never been meant to be born. Her blood haunted her from the second she took her first breath, her house divided thanks to thousands of years of lies. Lies that may never come to the light of day. Fear was a powerful totem and after two thousand years of lies, it left Athena trapped within the cage created for her. The abomination, the bastard of nature, the Roseblood Siphoner. Nothing to the world but a mistake and a monster.

In a pristine, watchful neighborhood where nothing goes unnoticed, Elizabeth has always been the quiet observer. When the elderly couple next door moves out, their once-cozy cottage transforms into something sharper, darker - and the new arrivals arrive under cover of night, bringing sleek black trucks and heavy crates. ©2025
