Violent Desire
Twelve immortals, twelve outcasts, one mission. To kill their own kind, before it's too late. Detective, killer, vigilante. Eric Sharpe is tired of watching criminals walk free. When a lowlife drug dealer kills his partner and escapes justice, Eric plots his own revenge. His plan is faultless but for one thing: the handsome, mysterious man who arrives moments before Eric's plan comes to fruition. Not only does the mysterious man know Eric's an undercover cop, he knows exactly what Eric did fifteen years ago-an event so traumatic Eric has been trying to bury it ever since. And the mysterious man? Fifteen years ago, Eric killed him. Now he's back to reclaim what's his: Detective Eric Sharpe. Immortal, predator, vampire. After betraying himself and the Blackrose Brotherhood fifty years ago, Zaine can't afford another mistake. There's one rule above all others the Brotherhood stand by. One rule that can never be broken. Never, ever care. All Zaine has to do is hunt and kill the savage nyktelios vampires and keep his head down. And he was doing just fine until he saved Detective Eric Sharpe from a vicious vampire attack. He can't stop thinking about the intelligent, handsome, haunted man. Walking away is the right thing to do, but the detective and Zaine are hunting the same killer-a vampire who knows more about both of them and the Brotherhood than anyone realizes. A vampire seeking to bring down the Brotherhood for good. Zaine can't walk away. Eric won't walk away. The vampire must be stopped, Brotherhood rules be damned, and they'll go down fighting together to end him.
