The Taking

USA Today bestselling author Erin McCarthy sweeps you into a seductive tale where a demonic gift threatens a desperate, irresistible love...

New Orleans, 1800s. Felix Leblanc made a deal with the demon of greed and became the most celebrated and powerful voodoo priest in the city, able to enchant beautiful, wealthy women. Until one client—lovely and dangerous—brings his reign to a disastrous end, condemning Felix to servitude and a loveless eternity of never being wanted for himself...

New Orleans, now. Heiress Regan Henry knows that passion can be an illusion, and she keeps her emotions in check—until she falls under the spell of the beguiling Felix Leblanc. He knows the rumors that her mansion is haunted are true, and he's the only one who can save her from the spirits residing there. But the only way he can free her is by sacrificing his last chance at redemption...or risk a love that could consign them both to an eternity of evil.
