What to expect
A dark and thrilling vampire romance set in the world of the New York Times bestselling series Serpent & Dove!
“You’re doing it again,” he says at last. I look away quickly. “Doing what?” “Romanticizing nightmares.”
Six months have passed since Célie took her sacred vows and joined the ranks of the Chasseurs as their first huntswoman. With her fiancé, Jean Luc, as captain, she is determined to find her foothold in her new role and help protect Belterra. But whispers from her past still haunt her, and a new evil is rising – leaving bodies in its wake, each one decorated with twin puncture wounds in its throat.
Now Célie has a new reason to fear the dark because someone – something – is coming for her. And the closer he gets, the more tempted Célie feels to give in to his dark hungers – and her own. . .
