Klauden’s Ring (Klauden’s Ring Saga #1)

Description

When Hannah van Kreeosk fled her father’s castle, she thought that finding a willing meal would be the worst of her problems. A natural born vampire, she never expected an attack would leave her wounded and in need of protection. As her desire for Rory grows, Hannah learns that the conflict in her heart may prove to be the more troubling wound. Unfortunately, between running from goblins and hiding from her father’s dedicated magician, the last thing Hannah needs is another knife in her back.

Rory Tallerin has met many traveling companions over his long life, but none so alluring as the wounded blacksmith of Talperin, a village destroyed by goblins. He is happy enough to have her join his ragtag band of survivors as they travel the dangerous road south, but even he has to ask questions when the bodies continue to pile up around them. Will his newfound connection with the mysterious Hannah be enough to withstand both of their secrets?

A vampire mage, Klauden van Sherinak was willing to let his betrothed go when a devastating secret threatened to unravel her position in House van Kreeosk but not without gifting her a special ring as a reminder of their long friendship. Little does Hannah know that her old friend is far closer than she ever imagined, and when she needs his help, Klauden is eager to rescue his beloved once again, even if she has found a new life beyond the mountains.

When forced to choose between the overwhelming demands of her body and the foolishly sentimental desire in her heart, Hannah must discover her true nature in this action-packed, high fantasy love triangle!
