Venice Dusk

2020

Vampires don't fall in love. Until they do. She seeks solace in her art… Portia Kepler had always dreamed of spending a season in Venice, even if it’s with a broken heart. Alone in a foreign land, she plays tourist by day and artist by night, waiting in Piazza San Marco for the mysterious stranger to pass by. The moment he’s in sight, her pen sets to work, capturing the outlines of a man she could never have. He protects Venice from a killer on the loose… Each night, he walks, searching for the rogue vampire threatening the tourists of the city. But when the redhead who sits at the café distracts him from his duties and tempts his affections, Massimo Brunelli, Vampiric Doge of Venice, will use all the power of his crown to secure Portia’s safety, even if it cost him his heart along the way. Can she bring light to his world of shadow? As a vampire sovereign, Massimo knows his love brings danger to his beloved. The currents pushing them together are too strong to fight, however. Portia longs to give in, but loving again is a leap of faith she may not survive. And with an ancient enemy closing in, what she needs from Massimo may be the one thing he can’t give her: time.

Authors

Killian McRae would tell you that she is a rather boring lass, an authoress whose characters’ lives are so much more exciting than her own. She would be right. Sadly, this sarcastic lexophile leads a rather mundane existence in the San Francisco Bay Area. She once dreamed of being the female Indiana Jones, and to that end she earned a degree in Middle Eastern History from the University of Michigan. However, when she learned that real archaeologists spend more time lovingly removing dust with toothbrushes from shards of pottery than outrunning intriguing villains with exotic accents, she decided to become a writer instead. She writes across many genres, including science fiction, fantasy, romance, and historical fiction.
