Midnight Harbor

It's near impossible to ignore my vampire neighbor, Bran Duval, when he has a habit of shucking off his clothes while the blinds are up. He's playing games with me, but I don't mind a challenge. Only problem is, I'm supposed to pledge myself to a rival vampire family and now all I can think about is Bran Duval, black sheep of the Duval vampire family, and the wicked things he's promising to do to me in the dark.

"Be a good girl for me, Mouse." Secrets are starting to come out about my past and the only thing that feels real anymore is my annoyingly hot vampire neighbor, Bran Duval. He made me a promise to help me uncover my past, but I didn't know those promises included the heat of his touch. Bran and I don't always see eye to eye, but when we're alone together in the dark, everything feels right, even if some of the things he does to me might be so very bad. As my Pledge draws nearer, and more secrets come out, I can't help but wonder: who am I? Or better yet, what am I?

One of the scariest vampires in Midnight Harbor loves me. I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing, but I'm not going to look too closely at it. Not when secrets are coming out about my past and a rival vampire is hellbent on not only possessing me, but my sister too. If I want to survive the secrets and plotting, I'm going to need Bran Duval by my side. Having him in my bed is just a bonus.

I finally know who I am…and it terrifies me. Worse, I think it also terrifies my hot vampire boyfriend, Bran Duval. Can we get past the latest revelations about my origins and newfound power? Will Bran ever look at me the same way again? We have to figure things out if we’re to defeat the enemy that’s coming… Because they're closer than we think.

I finally know the truth of my identity: I am not human. And it’s time I stop pretending that I am. If only I could control these rare, unique powers long enough to defeat my enemies. Because the fae gate is now open and the entire fae realm thinks I’m the villain. Or at least that's what I believed, until a fae prince gets down on one knee and offers his hand in marriage under the guise of court unity. Of course when my vampire boyfriend finds out, he has a proposal of his own. I love Bran and I do want to spend the rest of my life with him, but on my terms. I’m tired of being a pawn. It’s time I take charge of my own life and resume my rightful place on the Winter Court Throne.

“If you’re a good girl tonight, maybe I’ll treat you like a bad one later.” As a human living in the isolated supernatural town of Midnight Harbor, there’s only two choices for me: leave Midnight or pledge my allegiance to one of the supernatural Houses. It’s expected I’ll follow my family lineage and pledge myself to the Locke Vampire House. But with my pledging day approaching, I’m determined to live my own life and leave Midnight. I would have made good on that promise if it wasn’t for my vampire neighbor, Bran Duval, black sheep of the powerful Duval House. Bran reveals that my sister has secretly asked Duval House to bid on me breaking all of Midnight’s tradition. Bran doesn’t know the reason but I think he’s just as curious as I am because we’re soon teaming up to uncover the secrets. But the longer I’m with Bran, the less control I seem to have over my own desires. Especially when Bran is commanding me in the dark, igniting something in me I didn’t even know I had. And when Bran finally sinks his fangs into me, everything about my life comes into question. Because my blood? It isn’t human.
