Former assassin and recently turned vampire Asher Gatlin is enjoying his new life. He has his own place, few rules, and no one tells him what to do... outside his probation officer, who views him as a disaster waiting to happen. It feels like hard-won luxury to a man who had been owned by another for most of his life.

Until he's forced into a job that lands him squarely in the sights of a powerful Master-one who senses there's something dangerously unique about him. Asher isn't just a fledgling-he's demon-bonded. His blood? Unthinkably rare. The kind of rare a Master doesn't let slip away.

And Asher has no intention of giving up his freedom, or becoming anyone's property again.

He can't quit another job without risking a return stint at Franklin's supernatural sanitarium. But staying means keeping secrets from Castian Arkadias-Master of House Arkadias and CEO of the synthetic blood empire. If the Master uncovers what Asher really is...

Obsession can go both ways as Asher finds himself at a stark disadvantage. Will he retain his newfound status, or will he let the Master... master him?
