Synopsis
Serena knows a few simple things. She will always be owned by a warlock. She will never have freedom. She will always do what her warlock wishes, regardless of how inane, frivolous, or cruel it is. And if she doesn’t follow the rules, she will be tarnished. Spelled to be bald, inked, and barren for the rest of her life—worth less than the shadow she casts.
Then her ownership is won by a barbarian from another country. With the uncertainty that comes from belonging to a new warlock, Serena questions if being tarnished is really worse than being owned by a barbarian, and tempts fate by breaking the rules. When he looks the other way instead of punishing her, she discovers a new world. The more she ventures into the forbidden, the more she learns of love and a freedom just out of reach.

Synopsis
Katherine’s place is the same as any woman’s—on the shelf next to the dresses and bolts of cloth. When she’s sold to a warlock, life grows even bleaker. Her new owner is as old and rancid as he is cruel, driving her to do the unthinkable: run.
Nothing prepared her for being on her own. And she’s definitely unprepared for the warlocks hunting her down. But she must stay one step ahead because if caught, the best she can hope for is death.

Excerpt
Excerpt
My insides
hurt. I fold my arms across my stomach as they head out, but it doesn't help
with the pain. I move to follow.
Mother
touches my elbow. The touch startles me to a stop and she lets go. “I remember
when I was chosen by your Father. It was a troublesome time, but you can do it.
You're strong and your sisters need your example.”
I close my
eyes and shake my head before opening them again. “I don't think I'm that type
of strong.”
Mother
sighs. “Maybe not, but you still have to go through it, society expects it.
You'll have a new owner soon.”
She's right.
A warlock could ask to buy me at any time. There's nothing I can do about it. I
follow mother from the room, bowing my head with the hope that it will keep
further attention from me. But it's too late to hope. I will always be owned.
