Bella, a fallen noblewoman who lives only to die.
Her sole reason for living is to reclaim her mother's treasured music box and then end her own life.
With that one goal in mind, she infiltrates the Duke of Blackwood's estate as a maid. But she is discovered by William, the Young Duke infamous for being the 'Grim Reaper'.
Rather than back down, Bella exploits his weakness and makes him an unexpected offer.
"I'll be your lover, my lord."
Thus begins a scandal that will shake high society to its core.
What starts as a strictly business arrangement soon takes an unexpected turn. As Bella recklessly throws herself into danger, William finds himself unable to stop thinking about her...
"Fall for her...? Don't make me laugh. Once Bella Walker has served her purpose, she's a woman I'll have to kill with my own hands."
Will William Blackwood be able to kill her as their contract demands?
