The Lies That Summon the Night

The darkest sins taste the sweetest . . .

When art birthed vicious shadow monsters hungering for those who created it, all forms of creative expression were banned.

But the immortal royals destined to be humanity's salvation have their own monstrous affliction: the need to consume human blood.

Inana's illegal storytelling has turned her fugitive. She has evaded capture so far, continuing to weave tales for the most desperate.

Until a Shadowbane catches one of her performances . . .

Dominic is filled with as much bloodlust as the shadow monsters he hunts, and he needs an artist to summon them. He gives Inana an ultimatum: serve him or he'll claim her bounty.

As their tense alliance leads them into the heart of danger, the greatest risk is the desire growing between them. There's something more sinful than lust at play, and it could bring the world to its knees.
