The Pet - Paperback

A centuries-old vampire. An artist who refuses to break. A dangerous connection neither can resist.

When artist Kate Morgan is abducted from her Budapest gallery opening, she fears death. Instead, she awakens in the opulent but unsettling estate of Devon Karlov - a vampire collector who has spent lifetimes surrounding himself with beauty... and now, he has taken her.

But Kate is more than a possession. Her fire, defiance, and haunting art stir something in Devon he thought long buried. What begins as captivity becomes a battle of wills, a dance of tension and desire, where every stolen glance and near-touch threatens to unravel them both.

As Kate is drawn deeper into Devon's world of dangerous politics and ancient rivalries, she realises his enemies see her as his weakness. Her survival depends not only on her strength, but on a connection she never meant to feel.

If you crave vampire romance built on longing, gothic atmosphere, and a love story that smolders in the shadows, The Pet will captivate you.
