Nightshade: Nightshade Saga- Book One

She crossed into a world of vampires to find her father. Instead, she discovered she had been promised to one.

Afton Simmons has spent her life hiding a secret: only blood can sustain her. When strangers offer to take her through a portal to the father she has never known, she hopes the Nightshade universe might finally explain who she is—and give her a place to belong.

The truth is far darker. Afton has been brought home as part of an exchange, and an old agreement binds her to Lorenz, a powerful vampire who sees her mixed heritage as an abomination. Afton has no intention of surrendering her future to a stranger, however compelling he may be.

As her strength fades, accepting Lorenz’s blood may be the only way to survive. Their growing bond could save them both, but dangerous enemies threaten the fragile peace Lorenz has built between vampires and humans. To protect the people she loves, Afton must claim her place in a world that never wanted her.

Nightshade begins a paranormal romance saga of forbidden love, dimensional portals, and a heroine discovering her own power.
