Embers in His Frozen Heart: Her Crush Wanted Her Blood. His Brother Wants the Truth. Demons & Devils Paranormal Romance

On New Year’s Eve, he finally kisses her.

Then she feels the fangs.

Blake is not the boy she remembers from high school anymore. He is a vampire, he is hungry, and the attraction Mara thought was mutual becomes a terrifying trap when supernatural compulsion turns her own mind against her.

The person who pulls her back is Rowan—Blake’s quiet, dangerous brother, a warlock who sees through the glamour and refuses to leave Mara alone with a monster.

One burst of Mara’s fire magic changes all three of their lives.

Afterward, guilt consumes her. Rowan is grieving. And the truth about what happened that night refuses to stay simple.

Blake had been studying something darker than vampirism. Strange signs begin appearing where there should be only ashes and silence, while Mara’s uncontrolled power makes her a target in a supernatural world she has spent years trying to ignore. Rowan may be the only person who can help her understand what is happening.

He may also be the person with the most reason to hate her.

Caught between grief, attraction, magic, and a secret ritual no one fully understands, Mara and Rowan must discover what Blake really wanted before the darkness he invited finishes the job.

Because the kiss was never the most dangerous part of his plan.
