Shapeshifter Anne Willoughby takes pride in Holland's League's exclusivity and the fact the brothel has been a perfect sanctuary for witches facing demonic enslavement. When a series of murders threatens the brothel's existence, Anne turns to a man she can trust, "Demon" Gabriel Elstone. For Gabriel, being an undead lets him be a deadly thorn in his demonic sire's side. Anne's unexpected request is an offer he can't ignore, especially as it involves a chance to attend Holland's League's infamous auction and the promise of a night in the elusive Anne Holland's bed. Their bargain takes a deadly turn when the unlikely pair of supernaturals find they are destined life mates. Sparks fly and, of course, Fate is not above meddling in Anne and Gabriel's lives to move a prophecy along to bring about an end to an angelic civil war.
