One forbidden love. One ancient secret. And a vampire lord with everything to lose.

In the shrouded realm of Draconia, power is seductive-and deadly.

Vampire Lord Jack Townson rules the infamous Manor of Mystery, cloaked in charm, shadow, and secrets. But when he uncovers a conspiracy threatening his immortal kin and the found family he protects, Jack is forced to choose between duty and desire, vengeance and love.

To survive, he must unite a ragtag band of rebels-The Degenerates-and face an enemy who hides in the light. But in a world of treacherous magic, ancient curses, and blood-soaked betrayal, trusting anyone could be fatal... especially when his heart begins to betray him.
