She's spent her career reading blood. She never expected it to read her back.
Dr. Elena Marquez is a hematologist with a gift for finding patterns no one else can see - until she finds one that isn't supposed to exist: a rare genetic marker, vanishing from hospital records across the globe, covered up by someone with terrifying reach. Her investigation leads her straight to Adrian Veyra - cold, controlled, and hiding a truth that will upend everything she believes about the world.
Vampires are real. They've been real for millennia, governed by seven ancient Houses and an uneasy peace called the Covenant. And Elena's blood - the same blood her mother was murdered for, twenty-seven years ago - is the key to a research program that could shatter that peace entirely.
Forced into an uneasy alliance with Adrian to survive what's coming, Elena finds herself falling for a man who has spent three centuries choosing duty over desire - and now has to choose her instead. But the closer they get, the more they risk: her sister, his House, and a secret buried so deep even the vampires who rule this world don't remember where it began.
The Blood Collector is Book One of the Covenant of Blood series - a slow-burn, high-stakes paranormal romance for readers who like their vampires ancient, their politics dangerous, and their romance earned.
