She was promised eternity. No one warned her about the price of surviving it.
Eternal Nightshade: Book One – Bound in Blood, Forged in Legend launches a gripping vampire series that blends dark fantasy, dangerous desire, and the brutal reality of immortality.
Jennifer is eternally eighteen, frozen in youth but burdened with centuries of memory.

Her sire, Lucien, is powerful, charismatic, and cruel, a master manipulator who binds loyalty through blood and fear. Under his rule, Jennifer learns quickly that love and ownership are often indistinguishable in the vampire world.
As the years pass and cities rise and fall, Jennifer begins to awaken to her own strength. What starts as survival turns into quiet rebellion. Secrets buried in ancient bloodlines surface, and whispers of a forgotten legend follow her through the night. Jennifer is not just another creation. She is something rare, something dangerous, and something never meant to be controlled.

Every choice risks exposure, punishment, or death. Yet remaining obedient means losing herself forever.
