Synopsis

Destiny brought them together. It can also tear them apart.

Six months ago, Cassidy Chandler discovered that her unexpected roommate, Dominique Marchant, is a vampire turned against his will. Since then, they have forged a rare telepathic bond. Through this, she has become his tether to humanity, and he is the one person in her life she can count on to stick around. Nothing can tear them apart. Until…

They are always on guard for signs of a vague but ominous destiny. Yet Dominique is unprepared for the night he finds one in a seedy Fort Lauderdale motel. There, a mysterious vampire ignites in him an unspeakable hunger that threatens to shatter his relationship with Cassidy along with his soul. Determined not to lose him to the darkness, Cassidy takes a desperate gamble to save him. Instead, she becomes a pawn in a sinister game.

To rescue her from a fate worse than death, Dominique must risk more than his life. With the help of unlikely allies - an unhinged vampire pirate, a starry-eyed idealist, and a pair of ruthless vampire hunters - he launches a daring plan. But destiny will force him to make a terrible choice: embrace his darkest self…or destroy the woman he can't live without.

This is book 2 of the Dark Destinies series of books. Fans of Anne Rice, Charlaine Harris, and Deborah Harkness will love watching these complex characters struggle for redemption and find love against all odds in this addictive series featuring fish-out-of-water characters, slow-burn romance, and small-town paranormal suspense.

Includes Ancient Hunger, a BONUS SHORT STORY
