Blood and Bargain
A Dark Urban Paranormal RomanceBy Dessa Vale

About this audiobook
Reese Okonkwo's laundromat has washed worse than blood. She's a binder — she writes contracts that even demons have to honor — and she has never once signed one herself.
Until Callum crashes through her back wall, bleeding ichor, offering her block protection in exchange for one unnamed favor. She signs. The favor is a wedding.
His court needs him married or unseated, and a binder with no faction is the only bride no one can use. Reese moves into a warded apartment, learns his true name from a servant, and discovers the prince she married is himself indentured — to the same court bleeding her street dry.
To break him free, they'll have to write a contract that kills them both on paper. Blood and Bargain is a dark urban paranormal romance of binding oaths, forced proximity, and two people who negotiate their way into love.
