Independent and practical, Nora has no desire to be taken care of by anyone – especially not by a moody, dramatic vampire who sees her as his new muse. But Lord Claude de Vulpe insists that her blood awakens his long-dormant desire to paint, and he is willing to pay handsomely for it. Nora needs the money, so she agrees under one condition: any intimacy between them is strictly forbidden. Yet every day she learns more about her vampire patron – his talent, his tenderness, his insistence on pampering her in a way she didn’t know she craved. And Nora soon realizes she is caught in a game she does not understand between Claude, his controlling sire, and the disapproving Vulpe court. More than her heart is at stake in their arrangement, and the contract she once saw as her salvation may have deadly consequences for them both…
