Good evening my Midnight Romantics!

Here is the official After-Dark reader lounge reveal of the Bloodborn book cover in all its glory! If you've read any of the Origin stories, you get the symbolism. :)

All four of the prequel origin stories are now available exclusively in my bookshop! And Sylas is free!

Four warriors died in flames.
The Darkborn rose from the ashes.

Sylas. Thorne. Arless. Lucian.

Once mortal champions of Nordlund, they were resurrected by the goddess of death and cursed with immortality. They are the Darkborn—Protectors of the North, bound by blood and an unbreakable bond sharpened by hunger, pain, and rage. And their immortality comes with a cost. Every night, the hunger gnaws, and every battle steals another piece of their humanity.

As an ancient corruption, older than the gods themselves, spreads through the roots of the world, the fragile balance of Röthgard begins to fracture.

When Sylas saves a young princess from a blood-soaked dungeon in the rival kingdom, fate tightens its grip. She may be the key to ending the Butcher King’s tyranny, but the princess is also twelve years old, bound to Sylas by a bond neither of them chose, and her very existence makes his hunger roar.

As years pass, the princess is hewn into a weapon, the North is pushed to the brink of war, and a devastating truth comes to light: the Darkborn are not the only monsters the gods have created, and the ties that bind them may be the very thing destroying them.

Bloodborn is an epic dark fantasy romance where gods make monsters, and love is both salvation and ruin.

This is the first book in an epic, slow-burn romance of Norse-inspired myth, immortal warriors, and found family forged in blood. Perfect for romantasy fans of From Blood and Ash and A Court of Thorns and Roses with the brutal, fate-cursed grit of The Witcher and The Shadow of the Gods.
