Ezra Raine is a 500-year-old vampire prince and the ruthless CEO of RaineCorp—a global empire built on blood, secrets, and supernatural dominance. Cursed with immortality and haunted by betrayal, he rules from the shadows with iron precision. But the curse that fuels his power is starting to crack—and the key to breaking it may lie in the hands of the one woman born to destroy him.

Lira Black is no ordinary assassin. Raised by the Blood Order to hunt the creatures of the dark, she’s lethal, sharp-tongued, and loyal to nothing but the mission. When she’s sent to infiltrate Ezra’s world and bring him down, the last thing she expects is him his power, his obsession, his rage…and the fire he ignites in her.

Thrust into a world of ruthless politics, ancient rivalries, and blood-soaked secrets, Lira and Ezra are forced into a dangerous alliance. But as lust blurs the line between enemy and desire, and their fates twist tighter than ever, the truth behind the curse begins to unravel and so does their control over each other.

Because in this world, love is a weapon.
And the one who wields it… could burn the kingdom down.
