He craves my blood, I only want to survive.

On the night of my twenty-first birthday, I discover a terrible secret: my family is in the thrall of a vampire, and I am to be given to him as some kind of payment. Okay, that's two secrets, and neither of those compare to the revelation that vampires are real.

And one of them just tried to kill me.

After our nearly fatal first meeting, Lord Emeric brings me to his manor where he leaves me to recover. The vampire's staff tend to my needs, feed me my meals, and make sure I'm comfortable, but it's not long before a few things become clear. Nobody sees Emeric, nobody knows what his plans are, nor what he wants with me, and I cannot leave.

Trapped in a house full of secrets with a vampire who stalks the halls at night and nearly killed me when we first met, I resolve to find a way out and save myself. I don't have a choice. I don't know why he wants me dead, or why he hasn't killed me yet if that's the case.

But the longer I stay here, the closer I am to finding out.

The King of Blood and Shadow is the first book in a brand new Paranormal Fantasy Romance series. With deadly secrets, beautiful vampires, and an enemies-to-lovers you can sink your teeth into, this Beauty and the Beast style story is going to have you frantically flipping pages.
