When Devin lost his true love to the 18th century witch trials, he thought he'd lost his only chance at ever having love and a mortal life again forever. But then the vampire tastes his true love's blood in another—her tenth generation great-granddaughter. Suddenly, that life is possible again but only if he can convince Salena Saunders of their destiny. Fighting against the forces who want to protect her and the men who want to have her—including his own long-lost vampire brother, Gabriel—Devin struggles to get close enough to prove his love and intentions to Salena while protecting her from Gabriel and her own superstitions. Salena Saunders works as a tour guide in a New Orleans historical home—unraveling the past for tourists—when her own past begins to haunt her and mythical stories actually come to life right before her eyes. For the first time ever, she seeks guidance from fortunetellers and voodoo priestesses for answers—ones that both promise to shock her and guide her to true love and her destiny. Beyond the realm of mythical creatures and superstitions, as well as her very own cultural surroundings, Salena must come to terms with being Bound Through Blood. Views: 62
