Book Description:
Vampire and warlock, Roman Lee, spent centuries alone as ringmaster of the carnival. After befriending and healing a scarred, young woman, Roman realizes Mariah is his mate.

Now he's risen, unforgiving and angry, forced from his grave by the one woman who captured his heart, but will another secret and the call of his mate change everything?
The steady call of Roman's blood and the promise of peace brings Mariah Stone home to the carnival and the vampire she left behind. He ignores her until she forces him from the grave with her blood.

Excerpt 1:
Roman studied
the perfection before him with something akin to regret filling his spirit. It
should have been different between them. He momentarily questioned his decision
before setting the ruby stone on her bedside table. In a whisper, he began to
chant the words that would strengthen their connection and seal Mariah’s
healing so it couldn’t be undone by anyone, ever.
Blood exchanged will seal my gift
The flesh will stay, no spell will lift
Let the night be filled with dreams
So she won’t remember it was me
Roman lifted his
hands, palms up, to begin the next part of the spell using the stone, but when
Mariah moved in her sleep and threw one leg out from under the covers, he
didn’t know if he could do it. Bare flesh, creamy and soft, slid along the
quilt as Mariah moaned in her sleep and spoke his name. A dull light formed
inside the ruby stone, strengthening with Mariah’s moans. Roman closed his eyes
against the onslaught of desire brushing against his body and soul. It sought
entrance, control, and a response. She must be dreaming of him. It was the only
explanation. His eyes snapped open when the bed creaked. Heavy-lidded, sleepy
eyes opened with a reddish glow lighting their dark depths.
“Mariah?” Roman
spoke her name as a question, not fully understanding what was happening, but
the stone did. Brilliant red light shot from the ruby’s rough edges, saturating
the walls, the floors, and everything in between in its glow. Roman tilted his
face as Mariah rose from her reclined position to sit on the side of the bed. A
trickle of unease sped down his spine. This wasn’t supposed to happen. Mariah
was using the stone against him, and her desire magnified his own, fed off it,
and seduced in strong waves. Roman groaned as his cock swelled painfully and
his body clenched with need.
“Do you come to
me as a warlock, vampire, or as man?”
The question was
asked so softly Roman wasn’t sure he heard her voice. Mariah’s eyes blazed with
color. She was a temptress, a woman bent on crushing what remained of his
heart, and he hated her for it. Roman pinched the bridge of his nose when the
truth reared its ugly head, forcing him to accept what was meant to be. He
craved her like no other. This would be the one and only night they ever spent
together. The spell was cast, and she shouldn’t remember anything, so for once,
he let the caged passion soar. “I come to you as all three.”
