Frost princess Arya Winterveil loses everything when her adoptive sister Sylvia poisons her parents, steals her identity, and has her shot dead. But Arya survives — saved by a blood pact ring from a vampire lord she once saved.
Six years ago, she rescued Eirikr Michaelson — the pureblood vampire lord who now rules the underworld. She didn't know he was her destiny. Now she returns as a casino dealer, walking into Sylvia's world of lies.
Sylvia has it all: Eirikr's trust, Arya's daughter, the crown she stole. But Arya knows the truth — Sylvia can never bear children, and that baby belongs to her.
As Arya seduces and outplays her enemies, she awakens something in Eirikr. His obsession grows. His memory stirs. And when Sylvia's lies crumble, Arya will take back everything — including the man who was always hers.
