With the blood of the Van Helsing slayers in my veins and the legacy of Dracula himself in my bones, I'm primed to be the most powerful vampire alive.
Yet I want nothing to do with the crown placed upon my head, or the throne carved into my future. The weight of my parents' love and their expectations has paralyzed me my entire life. But that's the trap, isn't it? Living for them means dying for me. One fateful night, I'm pushed to the brink and escape to the human realm, and am quickly confronted with the violent reality of why I was forbidden to come here. Two devastatingly handsome brothers disarm me with wit, charm, and a shared dream of the arts. I think I've found kindred spirits, but what I find instead is the doorway into their family nightmare. Chained and left on the brink of death's doorstep, I reconnect with the dark side of myself I swore to leave behind. I am no one's plaything. Not even the gods themselves will be able to help the man who tries to take my freedom from me again. Yet even monsters like me can find devotion and love in the most unexpected places, and it turns out I'm not the only one held by chains in this compound. Three humans I once swore to kill vow to break me out and protect me. They're meant only to be a means of escape—until they bleed for me, beg for me, and worship me. Somewhere along my path of vengeance, they become the very people my soul craves. Before we can discover if there's a world that allows us to choose each other, together we must face the demons we're running from. Only then will we know if love can save us, or if it will demand we bleed for it. Blood Lies is a standalone dark, why choose vampire and human romance for readers who crave vengeance, obsession, and love that cuts as deep as it heals. Blood Lies is a full-length standalone that can be enjoyed without reading previous works in this universe.
