The Vampire's Redemption — Jessica Coulter Smith

Taken outside of a park in New Orleans, Cadence now finds herself in the land of Shar, a parallel universe that is home to the demons even hell doesn't want. The slave trader who kidnapped her starves her and beats her into submission, until the ruler of Shar steps in.

Lars, a vampire known for his cruelty, is drawn to the young captive. For reasons he can't explain, he wants to protect her and keep her safe. Buying her from the merciless slave trader, he heals her wounds. While he may have her in his bed, he wants much more from her. The vampire has decided he wants her love.

Can Cadence forget she's nothing more than a slave, forget the rumors of her vampire lover, and give Lars a chance? By opening her heart, can she become the vampire's redemption?
