I never expected to set eyes on Beckett again after running from my father's house a year ago, when an explosion killed the head of another powerful mafia family - along with my best friend. I knew then I needed to get far away from that bloody, merciless world. I should've known it wouldn't be as easy as changing my last name and bleaching my hair. Now here I am: broke, with no prospects and hardly any friends in an unforgiving city. All I have to offer is my virginity... and I know a place where men are willing to pay top dollar for it. I couldn't have guessed the highest bidder would be the man who stole my heart without trying. Who my father has tasked with keeping me safe and bringing me back into the fold now that the war that killed my best friend is stirring back to life. The last thing I want is to return to the Giordano compound - though losing Beckett again might be worse, especially since he's the only thing standing between me and a bloodthirsty enemy who'd love to use me to strike a blow against my family. Step inside the world of The Auction Series, where the highest bidder wins. It's not goods and services on stage to be bought and sold, but people who have put their bodies in the spotlight. When the hammer comes down and the amount is paid, will love be the real currency?
