Kyle Duncan lives his nights in a haze of pleasure and anonymity-feeding discreetly, seducing effortlessly, and blending into the shadows of L.A.'s club scene. A century after being turned, he has perfected the art of survival: stay charming, stay hidden, and never let the beast inside him slip. But everything changes when he discovers his neighbor brutally murdered, her apartment drenched in fresh blood. The scent nearly drives him into a frenzy-and it carries something else. Something familiar. Something wrong. When LAPD Detectives Madison Preston and Justin Anderson question him, Kyle plays the part of the aloof, unbothered bachelor. But the moment he sees Preston again-alone, undercover, and in danger at a notorious nightclub-he steps in, revealing more of himself than he intended. As Preston confides in him, Kyle learns the truth: A serial killer has been butchering women across the city. No forced entry. No defensive wounds. No drugs in their systems. They never fought back. Kyle recognizes the pattern instantly. They were glamoured. Only a vampire could do this. When he later tracks the scent of blood to another home and witnesses a trench-coated stranger slipping out into the night, Kyle's worst fear is confirmed: a rogue vampire is hunting humans-and framing the kills in ways that risk exposing their entire kind. Determined to stop the murders and protect the fragile life he's built, Kyle begins stalking the predator through the city's darkest corners. But the deeper he goes, the more he realizes this isn't random violence. The killer is deliberate. Calculated. And Kyle may be the next target. Caught between the LAPD, the vampire world he tried to leave behind, and the rising hunger inside him, Kyle must confront the monster he once was-and the one now threatening everything he cares about. Book One launches The Charmers with a blend of supernatural suspense, seductive danger, and a vampire who's about to learn that even immortals can't outrun fate.
