In the Heart of Darkness

Their families are bitter enemies, their love forbidden. Can two Brethren vampires forget the past—and forgive themselves—enough to try again? Mason Morin has everything he's ever wanted. A successful Hollywood surgeon and real estate mogul, his life is a nonstop party—one that helps him to forget his heart-breaking past, and the blue-eyed man he left behind so long ago. Julien Davenant is a ruthless killer, the unwilling heir to an empire built on lies, betrayal, and pain. His life has been spent in penance—not only for the suffering he's caused his brother, but for the pain he brought upon himself—the unforgivable sins that cost him the only man he's ever loved. When a sadistic war criminal, determined to unlock the genetic secrets of the Brethren race, captures them both, Mason and Julien are introduced to a dark underworld of brutal cage fighting, human trafficking, and drugs. If they're to have any hope of survival, they must work together, rebuilding the trust—and love—they thought lost centuries earlier.
