Her First, His Forever

Lucien Moreau has spent over four centuries mastering control. As a powerful, reclusive vampire and billionaire, he has accepted that eternity comes with one cruel limitation: monsters do not get families. Then Isla Bennett crosses his path. Human. Innocent. Untouched by love—and fiercely protective of the one thing she’s never given away. Drawn to Lucien despite every warning instinct, Isla awakens a hunger in him that has nothing to do with blood and everything to do with longing. There is something different in her veins. Something that doesn’t weaken him in the sun. Something that calls to him not as prey, but as possibility. Vampires cannot create life. Until Isla. As desire ignites between them, Lucien must fight his nature to protect the woman who could destroy everything he’s ever known—or give him the one thing eternity denied him. Isla must decide if trusting a monster with her first surrender is worth stepping into a world of shadows, danger, and forbidden love. When the impossible happens and Isla carries a child born of blood and miracle, their passion becomes a battle for survival. Because the night does not give up its secrets easily. And some forever stories are written in crimson.
