The Demon's Contract
She needed a miracle. He came with a contract.
Katie Nolan has spent fourteen months watching her younger sister fade inside the cold machinery of hospitals, waiting lists, unpaid bills, and impossible choices. When ordinary help runs out, a mysterious private adviser offers her something no doctor can give.
One year of restored health for Erin.
One year and one night belonging to Ronan Quinn.
Ronan is no ordinary man. He is ancient, controlled, terrifyingly beautiful, and bound to laws older than the city itself. The contract he offers is simple enough to ruin her: Erin will live, and Katie's soul will become collateral. At the end of the term, Ronan may claim her forever unless she survives three hidden conditions written into the bargain.
Katie expects cruelty. She expects possession. She expects the monster who owns her contract to behave like every other powerful thing that has taken from her.
Instead, Ronan becomes the one being who refuses to let the world break her.
As Katie is drawn into Blackthorn House, the Obsidian Court, and the hidden economy of souls beneath Dublin, she discovers that her bargain is part of something far darker than one desperate choice. Cormac Ryan, the man who arranged the contract, has built an empire from human suffering, selling despair to ancient powers and profiting from those with nowhere left to turn.
But Katie carries something rare in her blood, something that makes her worth more than she knows.
And Ronan is beginning to care far more than Hell allows.
Their bond begins as debt, becomes protection, and turns into a dangerous love neither of them can control. Every touch is restrained. Every look carries a warning. Every truth brings them closer to a law that was never meant to be broken.
The Demon's Contract is a dark gothic paranormal romance about sacrifice, forbidden desire, supernatural debt, and the terrifying beauty of being protected by the monster everyone else fears.
