Awakened (Circle of the Red Scorpion, Book 4)
About
Ancient secrets. Forbidden love. A ruthless enemy determined to bring the Pureblood world to its knees.
For centuries, Pureblood vampire Dominic Rinaldi has served as his father’s most trusted warrior. As the son of the Pureblood vampire leader and a member of the Circle of the Red Scorpion, he has devoted his immortal life to protecting his people—his heart locked away since an ancient betrayal taught him never to trust love again.
Then he saves Chantelle Mallory.
The beautiful human awakens emotions Dominic believed had died centuries ago, igniting a forbidden attraction neither of them can deny.
But their love blooms in the shadow of a rising threat. Nicodemus, a vampire of unknown origin, hunts the descendants of a voodoo priestess whose bloodline holds the key for rogues to walk in sunlight. With this power, he plans to build a hybrid army capable of destroying the Pureblood world.
As Nicodemus closes in, Dominic must protect the remaining descendants, uncover the truth behind his mysterious enemy, and confront the painful past that hardened his heart. But when Chantelle is drawn into the danger, duty and desire collide—and Dominic may be forced to sacrifice everything to save the woman who awakened his soul.
