The Wrong Vampire to Stake

In Darkwater, bookstore owner Beau Drewitt has talked himself out of love, certain that his supernatural baggage would only put a partner in danger.

Therapist Elowen Briar helps clients through their trauma while setting her own loneliness aside, until fate draws her toward the charming, enigmatic man behind the shop counter.

She cannot see that Beau is a vampire, or that the spark between them arrives with fangs and a body count.

Once he knows Elowen is his mate, his obsession deepens, and he must shield her from Kalevala, a ruthless vampire who wants him and will not be refused.

Guarding Elowen while fighting the instinct to keep her at a distance becomes its own trial in this slow-burn dark rom-com of trauma, redemption, and love with the undead.
