Tender lover, savage vampire

It was the vampire Nicolai's call that transformed Jane from an Oklahoma scientist into a princess in the kingdom of Delfina. It's their shared desire that makes her his. When Jane is abducted, Nicolai's memories of his past—and his birthright—resurface. As does his desire for vengeance. But what if the magic that brought Nicolai and Jane together has run its course? Will their love—and the blood bond between them—be strong enough to bridge two worlds?
