THE MOST EXCITING GOTHIC ROMANTASY YOU'LL READ ALL YEAR!

'Sharp, thrilling, with a hell of a bite'
K. S. Villoso

Remy Pendergast is many things: the only son of the Duke of Valenbonne, an elite bounty hunter, and an outcast among his fellow Reapers. His mother was a subject of gossip even before she eloped with a vampire, giving rise to rumours that Remy is a half-vampire himself. All his life he has been shaped into a weapon and when a terrifying new breed of vampire is sighted outside of the city, Remy prepares to investigate alone.

Until he encounters the shockingly warm-hearted vampire heiress Xiaodan Song and her infuriatingly arrogant fiancé, vampire lord Zidan Malekh. Though associating with them won't do his reputation any favours, they may hold the key to defeating the creatures.

As the three face dangerous hardships during their journey, Remy begins to develop fond and complicated feelings for the couple. He begins to question what he holds true about vampires, as well as the story behind his own family legacy. As the vampire-mutation continues to spread across the kingdom, Remy must decide where his loyalties lie: with his father and the kingdom he's spent his life defending, or the vampires who might just be the death of him.
