The deal is simple: break his chains, and he breaks her out. But no one warned Samara that a bargain with a vampire never ends at the prison gates.

Imprisoned for a crime she didn't commit, Samara is bullied by guards and tormented by the screams of her fellow prisoners. She's resigned herself to enduring her fifteen-year term…until she learns the freedom she's been promised is nothing but a cruel lie.

Now Samara is faced with a brutal choice: die within the cold walls of Castle Greymere or do the unthinkable and escape. But no one leaves Greymere alive. So to break out, she'll need help from one of the undead.

Raphael is the worst kind of monster: a vampire with a thirst for blood—and the same breed that killed her mother. He's also unspeakably powerful, his supernatural strength tamed only by the enchanted cuffs forced on him. Most importantly, he is Samara's only chance at a life outside the prison walls.

The deal is simple: Samara unlocks his shackles, and Raphael helps her escape. But he never promised to let her go once they flee the castle…
