Hillcrest Hollow Shifters #4
Bound to the Vampire: A Paranormal Shapeshifter Romance
Not yet published
Expected 12 Dec 25He’s charming, undead, and totally off-limits. So why can’t she stop thinking about him?
Jade
Jade Whitaker only came to town to restore a crumbling library, not lose herself in a man with a voice like velvet and eyes like midnight. Luther runs the general store, always has what she needs, and somehow makes dusty archives feel like foreplay. She tells herself it’s just the isolation, the mystery of the town, but her pulse says otherwise.
There’s something unnatural about too smooth, too still, too good at disappearing after dark. And when Jade stumbles across forbidden texts and records that don’t match reality, the spark between them threatens to ignite something far more dangerous than lust.
Luther
Luther has spent centuries mastering restraint. But Jade tests his limits from the moment she walks into town; sharp-tongued, soft-hearted, and smelling faintly of old books and temptation. He knows the risks of pulling her exposure, bloodshed, the unraveling of a delicate peace. But one taste of her laughter, one flash of those curious eyes, and he’s already losing control.
He was never supposed to fall. She was never supposed to stay.
But in a town built on secrets, desire might be the deadliest one of all.
He’s not just drawn to her—he hungers.
She’s not just uncovering history—she’s waking it.
And neither of them is ready for what’s about to rise.
This is Book Four in the Hillcrest Hollow Shifter series, but each book can be read as a standalone. Bound to the Vampire delivers a mysterious ancient vampire, a curious human librarian, a bat familiar who prefers gossip to upside-down naps, and a sizzling HEA that will leave you breathless.
