The night I was bullied and left to drown in a bathtub, Lucas pulled me from the edge of death.

I had believed no one could ever love me—except maybe Kayla, my best and only friend. The world had made sure I knew my place: an unwanted, overweight girl, unworthy of affection, let alone passion.

But then there was Lucas.

Godlike in his beauty, and he didn't just save my life—he gave me everything I’d ever ached for. A lavish home. Organic meals prepared just for me. The kind of care I’d only ever fantasized about.

So what if he isn’t human?
So what if his love comes with secrets?

I stopped caring the moment his hands first brushed the water from my lips.

The Plus - size Bride of Dr. Vampire

I had a dream… a really weird, fantastic, and… fearsome dream.


Lucas stood before me, just within reach, as handsome and irresistible as ever. My heart pounded with the desperate need to hold him and revel in his touch like I always did. To savor in the long-suffering reassurance that he was here. That he was mine.


I finally found the courage to embrace him, to pull him against me. But the moment my arms wrapped around his body, a shiver shot through me. He was cold—deathly cold. A chill seeped into my skin, shocking my nerves, making me recoil. My breath hitched as I pulled back, looking at him more closely.


And that’s when I saw it. I wasn’t holding Lucas at all. It was ice.


A massive, solid block of ice had replaced him, my arms encircling its frigid form. My chest tightened in horror as I darted back, my gaze darting over the transparent surface. And there, frozen deep within, was Lucas.
