He's the only man she's ever wanted. She's everything he can never have.Killian's scars are all people see, but with his wretched past, he doesn't want them to look closer. He resigned himself long ago to living as an indentured slave to a powerful and capricious high mage-until a chance meeting with a temptress outside a brothel teaches him to want...If only he hadn't asked her price for the night.Lady Mailin's escape from her tyrannical father is so close she can taste it. All she has to do is to fake her magical prowess long enough for the high mage to sign a marriage contract and whisk her away. Then she'll lose him and start a new life. The last thing she needs is a tortured bondsman mistaking her for a woman who works on her back...If only she could forget his gentle, callused touch.When a stormy sea strands them together on Prison Island, Mailin and Killian's illicit desires may prove deadlier than the convicts out for blood, or worse...

She owes her blood. He'll pay with his life.Ruthless assassin Gabriel has little fear and even fewer scruples. Every head has a price, and every hunt is a thrill. He saunters through life on a tightrope, mocking fate and defying death with every step. So when he's forced to hunt down and deliver a prophesied blood sacrifice, Gabriel has no reason to expect trouble. Until he realizes just who the mark is-a wildcat of a woman with dark eyes and an even darker secret...She may be voiceless, but she speaks to his soul, and giving her up may be a cost too steep to bear.Shyaree has lived her whole life under the weight of a terrible sin and the shame of her Changelessness. When her brother falls prey to a curse, healing him is her one chance at atonement. Only she never expected to be kidnapped by an arrogant and insufferable fae. She can't trust him or his bargains...or can she? He's a cutthroat bent on using her, yet working with him may be the only way to survive...He demands her blood, but she can't deny the way he calls to her body, or the danger he poses to her heart.
