Hey. I’m Carina Tranquilli. My friends call me Rina. I own a nightclub in the Castro in San Francisco. I work hard, play hard, and never let the death of my parents, the estrangement from my brothers, or this weird childhood memory loss I seem to suffer from get me down.

Then a witch attacks me on my birthday.

If that wasn’t enough to ruin my big day, three hauntingly familiar vampires emerge to tell me I have some sort of latent power, and that to protect me from their enemies, these so-called family members wiped my mind clean before abandoning me as a kid.

Now they’re here because they claim to need my help.

But, why should I?

Thanks to them, I have a target on my back. Plus, there’s a certain hot, undead musician on my radar, and I’m more interested in pursuing him than dealing with dysfunctional family drama.

Problem is, they won’t stop hounding me, so I’m stuck unraveling their web of deceit, dodging their enemies to stay alive, all while getting a handle on powers I neither want nor asked for.

I would much rather focus on the new guy in my life.

Is that so wrong?

“My day moved from ordinary to interesting when the deliveryman handed me a box that smelled of blood…”

Are you ready to submit?

I am The Executioner, the slayer, the ruthless hand of justice. Code Breakers beware.

Clothed in darkness and power, Jonas watches Carina from the periphery of her life. With all that he is, he secretly protects his young charge from harm. Only three months remain in the years-long prohibition forbidding contact with his little warrior when he fails.

Abducted from her dance club, Carina suffers a vicious attack by a newly-turned vampire. Jonas’s retribution for the lowly spawn’s code violation is swift and brutal, and merely the beginning of his vengeance. Fineas, the uninitiated newling’s maker, has committed the greater offense. And Jonas intends to make him suffer.
