A new paranormal series following the royal bloodline of Dacia, a vampire kingdom hidden within the Lore of the beloved, internationally bestselling, Immortals After Dark series.

Trehan Daciano, known as the Prince of Shadows, has spent his entire life serving his people. Striking mainly at night, he quietly executes any to threat to their realm. But when he beholds Bettina, the sheltered ward of two of the Lore's most fearsome villains, he finally desires something for himself.

After a life-shattering mistake, young Bettina is desperate to earn her guardians' trust back. She has no choice but to marry whichever suitor reigns victorious in the bid for her hand, even though she has already lost her heart to another - the mysterious cloaked swordsman that invades her dreams and tempts her with forbidden pleasure.

Even if Trehan can survive the ruthless contest to claim Bettina as his wife, the true battle is yet to come. Will finally unleashing his ravenous lust frighten his Bride, igniting a flame too hot for either of them to handle?
