Hallie Davis just started at college and is ready to see what life has to offer.

Everything is going smoothly until she meets the mysterious and insanely attractive River Knight.

River makes Hallie's heart flutter, but she knows a popular guy like him could never like an ordinary girl like her.

From that first meeting, River turns Hallie's life upside down and she is introduced to a world she has only read about in books. Vampires, crime, and mystery become her new life. Their relationship is put to the test as they try to catch a vampire serial killer and be with each other. Will they make it out on top?

As I look closer, I can see a pair of eyes watching me through the crowd. Ignoring my pounding heart, realization washes over me.

How the hell am I always running into River Knight when I least expect it? And is he always looking at me like he's trying to dig deep into my soul?

Mysteries Around Him

“Good game, man,” Nate cheers as he slaps me on the back.


I turn to look at him over my shoulder just as he’s pulling his sweaty, grass-stained jersey over his head. I shoot him a grin as I pull a fresh black t-shirt over my head.


The game tonight was amazing. I played better than I ever have, and I think that was due to Hallie being in the crowd. I didn’t think she would accept my offer to come after what had happened the other day, but I’m glad she showed up.


Seeing her bright smile and innocent eyes before I ran out onto the field gave me a confidence booster because I knew she would be watching from the crowd, and I wanted to impress her. Knowing she is still by my side after the bombshell I dropped on her made me the happiest I have been in decades.
