My name is Livvi, and for the next 13 months I'll be on my knees, paying off my father's debts. There's been a plot against my family for years, and I am the tapestry upon which they will paint their blackest revenge.

But I may yet have a Champion. He's a man with a dark past, and though his deception leaves me stunned, he promises to keep me alive.

The price, however, is complete submission to his desires.

It's an offer without guarantees, and I have no choice but to accept it.
