The Vampire Lord's Hunted Heir

Betrayed as a sacrificial pawn, Merritt wakes in a rain-soaked cemetery with a stake at her throat—and the deadliest vampire lord in New Orleans ready to claim her blood. But her forbidden ancient blood burns through vampire oaths, forcing cold, ruthless Beckett Ravenmore to protect the one woman he was sworn to destroy. As the Vampire Council hunts her for a daylight ritual, Merritt must turn her enemies’ rules against them before desire, bloodlust, and one dangerous blood bond consume them both.
