New York Times bestselling author Kerrelyn Sparks delivers the exciting conclusion in the Love at Stake series, where a Marine-turned-vampire finds love with the shifter princess forbidden to him. Russell wakes from a coma to find he's become a vampire. Now he has a thirst for revenge. Determined to hunt down the master vampire who turned him, he's used to working alone - until he meets Jia. She is after the same vampire for murdering her parents and insists she can help Russell on this mission. Reluctantly, he agrees, and sets up some ground rules: Rule #1: Their partnership is strictly business. If he holds her a little too close . . . if she looks at him with those exotic eyes . . . well, that has to stop. Rule #2: He's in charge. Jia isn't used to taking orders and questions every move he makes. So he stops her the only way he knows how. Rule #3: Don't fall in love. But the kiss that was supposed to quiet her awakens something else in him . . . something forbidden. Because Jia is engaged. To someone else.

ONE PRETTY LITTLE GIRL. Discovered wandering alone in the heavily forested Highlands as a toddler, Ariel--with her inquisitive glowing eyes, supernatural healing abilities, tiny fangs, bouncing pale curls and happy disposition--was discreetly adopted into the MacDonnel clan and officially claimed as the big, burly leader's illegitimate daughter after she miraculously healed his young son, Kaid. TWO OBSESSED WARRIORS. Now--years later--while on their families annual hunt, Ariel is being guarded well--as always--by her big, insanely protective adopted brother, Kaid, the future leader of Clan MacDonnel who's also her best friend. Unfortunately, Kaid's other best friend, Bran--her aggressive, secret ex-boyfriend--is busy reminding her how much he now dislikes her. THEN ENEMIES EMERGE. Her personal problems soon pale into the background, however, when the MacDonnel's inadvertently anger the Fraser's--one of the most viscous clans in all the Highlands, led by a cruel vampire warlord and his two brothers. Up to this point, Ariel's whole life has been filled with pretending she's not stronger, faster and more skilled than every member of her clan. But her desire to protect her people from any more Fraser attacks will soon have her flexing those rarely used abilities. INTENT ON RETRIBUTION. Secretly leaving her home, Ariel travels to the impenetrable Fraser stronghold to ask for sanctuary by using a false identity. And when she eventually meets the oldest brother, Ariel intends to smile and flirt, biding her time until she has the perfect opportunity to murder the vampire leader. TIMING IS CRUCIAL. Ariel must be back to the MacDonnel land within a fortnight before Kaid and Bran return from their own trip. Because Kaid's explosive fury at coming home to find HIS Ariel missing would be much scarier than any old vampire. IT'S THE PERFECT PLAN. What could go wrong? It's not like she's going to get in an accident and wake up with amnesia. BOOK SERIES ORDER: 1-Forbidden 2-Forsworn 3-Forgotten 4-Forsaken 5-Forevermore
