An experimental vaccine offers vampire Gerard Delaroche a glimmer of hope after two centuries in the shadows. But when two people are savagely murdered and another vanishes, Gerard suspects a deadly conspiracy—one that binds vampires and mortals in blood and betrayal. To expose the truth, he must trust Amber Buckley, a former soldier turned detective with a haunted past and eyes that see too much.

Assigned to reexamine the Lifeblood of America slayings, Amber expects routine interviews. Then she meets Gerard—and something in him stirs memories she thought buried for good. As they dig deeper, the case unravels into something far darker than either imagined.

Together, they must confront secrets, nightmares, and a bond neither expected. But to find the light, Gerard and Amber must first… Embrace the Darkness.

Her research could cure his dark hunger if a covert government agent doesn’t get to her first.

Vincent Maxwell is a vampire with a conscience seeking a cure for his dark hunger. But when a scientist looking to create vampire soldiers captures and kills a fellow vampire, Vincent seeks out Dr. Megan Harper, a research scientist who discovered a link between a genetic light sensitivity disorder and vampirism. Dr. Harper could hold a key to a cure and the answers to Gerard’s death. But getting close to the beautiful scientist could endanger both their lives.

When Megan meets Vincent she believes he suffers from xeroderma pigmentosum, the genetic disease that killed her sister. Sensing a deep loneliness within the handsome man, she offers friendship and access to her research files. But she and Vincent soon become more than friends and Megan learns the horrifying truth. She’s entered the dark and unseen world of vampires and Vincent is her only hope of survival.
