"There's hot, and then there's Delilah Devlin. She's in a class by herself." -National bestselling author Sylvia Day. Eirik, heir to the Ulfhednars kingdom, was seduced and kidnapped by a bounty-hunting vixen. Now a pleasure slave, he is forced to feed the lustful whims of the elite. He bides his time, waiting for a chance to escape and get his revenge on the woman who betrayed him. Once a sex thrall, Fatin earned her freedom through service. Now, as a bounty hunter, she is determined to earn enough to buy her sister's freedom-even if the brutishly handsome, breed-worthy specimen from the Viking planet must suffer. But her desire for justice and his desire for freedom may consume both of them in a passion neither wanted-or can resist.
