I never thought the vampire who pinned me against the alley wall would be the same monster my family has sworn to wipe out for centuries. But when Henrik Forsythe's golden-brown fingers wrapped around my wrist and his dark eyes burned into mine, the blood oath that binds me as a hunter shattered. Now every secret, fevered night I spend gasping his name is pure betrayal—and the baby growing inside me might be the weapon that destroys us both.

I’ve spent seven years hunting the syndicate that butchered my coven—only to find their deadliest enforcer is Ronan Bellingham, the same broad-shouldered bastard who starred in every forbidden teenage fantasy I ever had. Now an ancient blood oath has chained us together through a living grimoire that pulses with dark power, forcing us to share spells, secrets, and far too much body heat. Every shared incantation drags us closer, every stolen breath against warm skin makes me hate him more... until I realize falling for the man who destroyed my past might be the one thing that finally breaks me.

The second I opened those encrypted ledgers, I knew I was dead. Then Gabriel Ramirez—the cartel underboss sent to kill me—looked into my eyes and decided to keep me instead. Now I'm locked in his penthouse, watched 24/7, fighting the way my body betrays me every time his hands touch my skin. He says I'm collateral. His eyes say I'm his. But in his world, wanting me might cost him everything... and I'm not sure I want him to choose me.
