"Any means necessary." She was trained to serve. Prepped and pampered to be desired by many. She was told to be silent. Obedient. Locked away until the call of the Awakening and offered to the House rulers. A jewel like no other. When Mineeka is taken from her cage, she found herself in a new prison. Awaiting the day her winning Alpha would take her purity and break her body, soul, and spirit. While battling to understand a world as confusing as it is frightening, another battle is looming. With the bids placed, Mineeka’s fate is sealed. She will belong to the highest bidder.
Once you've overcome self-doubt, ideas can become endless. ~Kylie Price
Kylie Price has been a published author since 2012 after finally pursuing her dreams, pushing past the self-doubt and memories of setbacks as a child. Having a learning disability, along with little to no encouragement growing up, it took her a long time to fight the inner-demons that taunted her every idea. Relishing her newfound confidence, her passion for writing split off into a parallel direction and she started her company, Awaken Imaginations, in 2016 with the sole purpose of helping young children find their passion for reading and writing. The publishing company took off quickly as the overall result from students' grades jumped dramatically, and other schools sourced her to work with their students. With the program consisting of a published anthology containing stories written by the students in each class, it's her mentoring success that drives every student headfirst into the writing project to have their stories printed. Having no higher education, and no experience other than publishing knowledge and a passion for writing and exploring the imagination, this has not discouraged new schools wanting Kylie to squeeze them into her limited time slots. Her business has helped her learn new things about herself and the students she mentors, but she still enjoys writing her own tales for others to enjoy. All funds earned from her books go towards her mission to inspire those who feel they can't, while championing those who wish they could.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Genre: Fantasy / Omegaverse Spice Level: 🌶️🌶️🌶️ Cliffhanger Alert: Oh, it hurts 😭
A dark, addictive ride through betrayal, power, and redemption. Mineeka’s story is raw and brutal — a trained maiden sold like property, thrown into a new kind of cage. Her Alpha, Dakoda, made a horrible first impression (yes, dungeon threesome on night one… unforgivable 😤). But somewhere between rage and obsession, he changed — and became a man who worships his wife like she hung the moon.
Their journey is messy, emotional, and laced with tension, but watching Dakoda fall hard for Mineeka was so satisfying. And just when you think they might get a sliver of happiness... cliffhanger. Of course.

Ooompf!! Right from the start. The last paragraph sent shivers head to toe. I've been following Kylie since her first release and have been waiting in anticipation for her next series. Kylie's writing just gets better as she goes. This story is full of intrigue, entanglement and love. All the things to make an awesome story pull you in and wanting more.. Gonna be an epic series!!!
Kylie Price never lets you down. I’ve read her Trinity series and Stalker series and have enjoyed the twist and turns she creates. Started The Highest Bidder in the afternoon and could not put it down, the story captivated me, her descriptions so vivid I could see them in my mind, her characters believable, sexy, and larger than life.
