Drew Russell is one of the king's wards, born from a mistake and determined to prove his worth to his father and himself. Duty has always kept him focused-until she arrives. Riley Davis. From the moment they meet, Drew is consumed by a hunger he's never known, a desire that could destroy them both. Riley, a Dhampir torn from her father's world as a child, is thrust back into the royal court-a place glittering with jewels and steeped in darkness. Navigating this unfamiliar world is hard enough, but when she falls for Drew, their forbidden romance threatens to unravel the fragile peace of a kingdom on the brink of war. As tensions rise, Riley must face a choice: her heart or her destiny. Because in the king's court, love may be the deadliest danger of all.
