Bloodlines and Shadows (Vampires of Blood and Bones #22)

A desperate relic hunter. A cold-hearted vampire warrior. A fated bond that could save them both.

Kai Azar is a relic broker used to living on the dangerous edge of the paranormal world, but his luck has finally run out.

Hunted by ruthless mercenaries for a mystical dagger, Kai is left bleeding out in an abandoned Sedona warehouse.

With his last ounce of strength, he reaches out to his estranged brother, Tarek, fully expecting it to be his final goodbye.

Ramos Carver is a legendary, ruthless enforcer for the powerful DuCane Coven. Known as a ghost and a monster on a good day, Ramos lives a cold, emotionless existence.

When Master DuCane dispatches him to find the missing human, Ramos expects the rescue mission to end with a corpse.

When Ramos comes face to face with the battered, blue-eyed relic hunter clinging to life, the stone-cold vampire experiences something completely unexpected: a fierce, undeniable need to protect.

Whisked away to the shielded, magical territory of Mt. Pleasant, Kai is thrust into a terrifying new reality.

He quickly discovers that Ramos is far more than just a bodyguard; they are bound by the sacred, soul-deep tie of a vampire and his beloved.

As Kai heals, the walls around his heavily guarded heart begin to crumble under Ramos’s fierce devotion. However, Kai’s dark past is not done with him yet.

Will Kai surrender his secrets to the lethal vampire who claims him, or will the sins of his father destroy their chance at forever?
