I sold my blood for millions. I never expected to risk my heart.I’m twenty-nine, broke, and picking up the pieces after a marriage that left me with crushing debt and worse instincts.Working nights at a Chicago club, I spot Aiden in a shadowy booth—designer suit, ice-blue eyes, and a gaze that won’t let go.When I get fired, the mysterious stranger offers a lifeline. Five million dollars for five years of my life as his live-in blood donor.The catch is simple: I move into his secluded estate. It’s meant to be professional and temporary, a clean transaction that fixes my future. Until I learn what Aiden really is. No capes. No coffins. Just ancient laws, ruthless enemies, and a world that closes ranks when a human knows too much.Aiden isn’t the monster I thought a vampire would be. He’s sharp, dangerously protective, and far too easy to talk to. The banter comes fast, the chemistry hits hard, and the pull between us feels less like choice and more like fate.But this bargain wasn’t made for romance. It was made for survival, and danger is already circling the estate.Will this deal save me… or bind me to a vampire’s world for good?Into the Light launches the Immortal Hearts series, a paranormal vampire romance. If you love billionaire bargains, forced proximity, and fated-mates chemistry, plus a touch of humor and a refreshing twist on vampire lore, you’re in the right place.
