Silent Bloom

Sanguines-those born with too much blood and destined to give it away-exist to nourish vampires. For River and Hawthorn, brothers and leaders of their ancient vampire community, that balance has always held... until rabid vampires begin appearing across their territory, feral and dying, their creator unknown.

The investigation leads them to a name they never expected to hear again.

Noah.

The sanguine they once gave up.

Imprisoned by a vampire who saw him as nothing but a resource, Noah has survived horrors no sanguine should endure. Mute, injured, and haunted, he emerges from captivity with nothing left but instinct -and a past full of monsters created from his suffering.

As River and Hawthorn unravel the truth, they find themselves drawn to Noah with the fierce, undeniable pull of a destined bond. But Noah has learned to fear vampires.

Healing takes time. Trust takes longer.

Yet in the quiet moments between nightmares, Noah discovers that being a sanguine is not only pain and sacrifice. With Hawthorn's steadiness and River's fire, he finds tenderness, safety... and a love powerful enough to remake fate.
