Before the Storm

A woman desperate to escape her past. A disgraced vampire ready to prove he isn’t a monster, if only to himself. An encounter that will set their lives down a path neither were prepared to travel.

I’m Sydney Bryant, a loner and waitress at a vampire-themed nightclub. I’ve finally broken free from my past, but I can’t ignore the feeling deep in my bones that says something bad is coming for me.

From the moment Stellan first walked into Club Dead, I was intrigued by him. He’s tall, dark, and brooding with a hint of danger and an intoxicating scent that makes me want to abandon my inhibitions and see what kind of excitement the alluring vampire might bring to my life.

When I reluctantly agree to meet with someone from my past, the evil I knew was coming for me finally arrives, and I’m shocked to find Stellan as part of the group determined to steal me away.

But things aren’t always as they seem, and it isn’t long before the undeniable attraction between us ignites as he whispers promises that threaten to tear down the wall I’ve built around my heart.
