Book excerpt: Darren is a dhampir, and like all dhampirs, he hates vampires. He hates them even more since they captured him and are holding him prisoner, or at least, that’s what he tries to convince himself. Caley is a medical examiner for the conclave, and since the dhampirs arrived in town, he’s been overworked. That hasn’t stopped him from being fascinated by Darren, even though being interested in a vampire hunter is the worst thing that could happen to a vampire—especially when he’s tasked with keeping an eye on the hunter. Darren wants out of his cell. The conclave wants more information from him. By letting him stay with Caley, everyone gets what they want. Until Caley and Darren fall in love. Darren has been raised to hate vampires, but he can’t anymore. His father still leads the dhampirs, though, and they’re tearing through the city. Darren can help stop him, but is he ready to sacrifice himself and what he found with Caley to do that?
