Seasonal Obsessions Series by B. Lybaek

My name is not the only thing on Nicklas Knight's naughty list—so is my body. He's the most possessive man I’ve ever met—cold and calculating. When he needs an heir, he offers me a contract that ensures my sister is taken care of for a long time. In return, he buys the right to breed me. This December, I belong to him—and trust me, he's no jolly old Saint Nick. His jealousy is a living, breathing thing, and he won’t tolerate anyone else even glancing in my direction... moreMy name is not the only thing on Nicklas Knight's naughty list—so is my body.

I never said “I do” at the altar. But at the Black Wedding, no one cares about consent. Jack Knight blames me for his sister’s death, and he’s had seven months to plan exactly how to trap me on his stage. If I hadn’t opened my door to a masked stranger at midnight, and let him lead me down a deliciously dark path, maybe I could have escaped. Now, I’m inside Sanctuary of Shadows, the gothic, month-long carnival of horrors and deception, where every rule is his and every choice is an illusion... moreI never said “I do” at the altar.
