Midnight Vanguard (Book 1)

Rin Delacruz has earned a reputation as one of the best mercenaries in the game. And scarred by a past that won't let go, she tracks down rogue supernatural threats with precision and a cold heart. But when a priceless artifact, the Bloodstone Dagger, is stolen, her world turns upside down.

Her new employer? Jake Cross, a charismatic and mysterious artifact dealer with his own hidden agenda. He's not a vampire prince or a brooding hero-he's a street-smart, sharp-talking, and somewhat morally grey hustler who seems to know more about her past than she does. He promises riches, but with every job comes a new danger, and this one's no different.

The Bloodstone Dagger holds the power to destroy the fragile truce between humans and supernatural beings, and Rin Delacruz is the only one who can stop its activation. But as she digs deeper, she uncovers secrets about her bloodline that could change everything-and Jake's motives might not be as selfless as he claims.
