A Tase Of Eternity | A Gothic Vampire Romance

The town of Thornewood was built on a lie: that the Devil who once stalked its streets was nothing more than folklore, a story told to frighten children home before dark.

Violetta Hawthorn has never quite believed the stories. Motherless since birth, raised in the shadow of a father who cannot look at her without grief, she finds her only warmth in her brother Ivan, training to take over their father's practice as Thornewood's physician.

Then the old estate at the edge of town opens its gates for the first time in a century, and its new master arrives to claim it: Sir Callum Thornewood, said to be the last of a bloodline the town thought extinct, come home to a ruin no one expected to be reclaimed.

Not long after, the disappearances begin.
The town remembers the old stories - of a Devil who once fed on Thornewood's own, driven out by torches and fury generations ago. Violetta's father is called to examine the dead. Suspicion turns, inevitably, toward the stranger in the estate on the hill.

But Violetta meets Callum before the town can decide his fate, and what she finds is nothing she expected

Some devils don't need to be summoned. Some are simply waiting to be wanted.
