Description
"This book had me immediately obsessed... The gothic atmosphere is written so vividly and the characters so beautifully."
-- Goodreads Reviewer
Kathryn sent one desperate letter to her vampire stepbrother, Sebastian -- never expecting he would answer.
Yet he rides through the night to reach her doorstep.
"Of course I came," he says softly. "I will always come for you."
But he cannot save her.
He cannot pay her debt.
He can only make a bargain.
Twelve nights.
Twelve wealthy patrons.
And she must please them all -- or her life is forfeit.
She can try to flee the manor. But there is no escaping her stepbrother.
He will do anything to keep her alive -- even subject her to humiliation.
He will make the arrangements.
He will choose the patrons who touch her.
He will stand by and ensure she fulfils the bargain.
Even if it ruins her.
Even if it makes him sick.
Even if it destroys them both.
What she does not know --
Is that he has loved her all along.
And every night is breaking his heart.
This is not a love story -- yet.
His Forbidden Bargain is Book One of The Twelve Nights of Christmas, a twelve-part dark paranormal romance series of short novellas designed to be enjoyed in one sitting.
The HEA (Happily Ever After) is reserved for the end of the series, with plenty of yearning, angst, and hurt / comfort along the way.
Each gothic dark romance novella is fast-paced and spicy, following Kathryn and Sebastian's descent into darkness through power, survival, and a bond that should never have been tested.
Her bargain has begun.
And every night will cost her more.
Little does she know that it costs him, too.
WHY READERS ARE OBSESSED:
"This book does NOT tiptoe. It kicks the door down, looks you in the eye, and says, 'You ready for this mess?'"
-- Goodreads Reviewer
"His Forbidden Bargain is a seductive, shadow-laced fantasy romance built on dangerous promises and the kind of desire that should never be indulged."
-- Goodreads Reviewer
"It's bold, shocking, and definitely not a cosy read but if you enjoy very dark paranormal romance that pushes boundaries, this might be one to check out."
-- Goodreads Reviewer
"Dark romance lives or dies on whether the author can create genuine emotional connection without sensationalising harm, and Darcy Fayton absolutely succeeds here."
-- Goodreads Reviewer
"This was a tightly written, emotionally controlled novella that trusted the reader and respected its characters."
-- Goodreads Reviewer
"You can feel the chemistry that is building between Kathryn and Sebastian... the betrayal, the torment, and the desire they have for each other."
