Jade Eadwald is a peculiar teenager, living with neglectful, multi-billionaire parents who hoard a load of shady secrets, and a dark past they would do anything to keep their only daughter from finding out.

The Eadwald's move from house to house every year, constantly attempting to leave their past behind. But this fall, they have decided to move back to London, where it all began, for reasons unknown, and Jade is in for a school term she might not survive through.

Jade is set to join a school called 'Bloodstone Academy' for the fall term, and unknown to her, behind the ancient stone-walls of the castle, lies a whole new, dark and dangerous world she will inevitably come to be a part of.

'The Vampires of Ruin' have come to reside within the walls of Bloodstone Academy, and they seem to be on the hunt for something, or rather, someone important.

The Blood Prophecy that was once told a hundred years ago has been retold by another witch from the Almathea coven, and vampires all over the world have grown agitated. Tension that's been building up for a century is at its peak, and The Vampires of Ruin are relentless in their search for the one the Prophecy speaks of.

Until Jade walks into the hallways of Bloodstone Academy on an early September autumn morning, with a cold, indifferent expression on her stunning face.

Wild-haired, dark-skinned with a mysterious, radiant beauty that makes the world swoon, Jade quickly catches the attention of everyone in Bloodstone Academy. But especially that of two vampires; Vasilis Wang and Roman Augustus. 

Suddenly finding herself trapped in the webs of a dangerous love triangle, Jade realizes the boys she's falling for are not human, and her new school is no regular high-school either. 

Something bigger than all of them, and the affections they've come to harbor for one another is brewing just beneath the surface of their collective consciousness, and Jade seems to be the sole catalyst to a disastrous event that will come to threaten the existence of all Vampires. 

Bloody, dark secrets are suddenly being dug out of graves and tombstones, and the Eadwalds' family secrets seem to be right in the mix, too.

Will Jade survive being in the center of so much turmoil and destruction? Or will her heart be able to bear loving two immortals she might end up having to destroy?

My mouth trailed along the length of her neck, the alluring softness of her silky skin sending me teetering on the brink of an incinerating oblivion I would gladly succumb to if it meant that I could have her all to myself.


Her fingers laced through my hair as she moaned and rolled her hips against mine, awakening a menacing, desperately feral need within me.


I had to stop. If I didn't stop now I wouldn't be able to stop myself again.


I paused for a moment, chest heaving as I pulled myself together...or rather, attempted to. Then. I pulled my mouth from her neck with such infernal difficulty.


The strap of her night-dress had fallen down a shoulder, revealing a luscious cleavage I would kill to bury my face within. Her nipples were rock hard with arousal, pushing against the sheer fabric of her dress. I groaned, pushing sinful thoughts of sucking on them away from my head and unhooked her legs from my waist instead.
