Zaire Duval isn't supposed to be here.
Not again. Not like this. But something-someone-has pulled him back to the surface after a century in hiding. The girl's scent, her soul, her blood. Everything about Nyomi drags him closer to the edge of hunger and history.

The town of Ashbrooke has long buried the truth beneath ivy and graves. But something is waking. Old magic, old blood, and an ancient prophecy that threatens to unravel everything Nyomi thought she knew about her world-and herself.

Inspired by The Vampire Diaries but rooted in Southern Black culture, ancient bloodlines, and fall-soaked college town mystique, this supernatural romance simmers with danger, desire, and a slow-burn legacy of magic, monsters, and love that refuses to die.

At first, the authorities try to pass the mysterious deaths off as suicide. However, as the death toll continues to creep upwards, they're forced to investigate other possibilities. How is this the work of a serial killer? Girls found dead in their own homes, entirely drained of blood; but no signs of struggle, no puncture marks anywhere. No shreds of evidence left behind by the killer. Then, if that's not enough, two girls go missing. Who is this boy, capable of killing so many without a single stain on his conscience? What are his plans, now that he's so feared and his identity is still unknown; after all, who in their right mind would ever guess that a vampire is at the heart of all these terrors? Most importantly, why did this monster spare Natalee's life, and what makes her so special to him? Read on and launch yourself into the tangled web that ensnares so many, as the strands continue to be woven thicker, deeper into their lives than any of them could have imagined. - ALL RIGHTS RESERVED - ©

I moved to Whitby expecting my days to be filled with grief and heartache while I watched my father die. But turns out the town has much more to offer a teenage girl like me. His name is Marcus Davenport. Rich. Powerful. Admired by the locals. Not. Human. If I were smart, I would have run the other way when I realized what he was. But there's this undeniable pull between us, a heartbeat that brings us both to life whenever we're together. I convinced myself it was fate drawing lines in the sand, the beginning of a love story that would end with forever. But I was wrong. Turns out the blood running through my veins is tied to Marcus in a way that corrupts everything we feel for each other. It's no longer something I can trust. Nothing is as it seems. The paranormal residents of Whitby altered my reality forever, and now I'm caught in a web of dark secrets and deadly deceits. The future is more uncertain than it has ever been, and I have no idea what's going to happen between Marcus and me. Oh, and then there's Luke, another one of this town's little secrets...and one huge complication.
