contacted the couple through Esme, had communicated enough that they all

rain dampened his hair to dark gold. Her insides melted a bit as she looked at

story in The Darkling’s
Surrender by Lauren Hawkeye,

    Two weeks ago, Dr. Aubrey Hart had still been alive. Now
she’s a vampire, undead and starving, with a maker who shows no interest in
helping her adjust to her new abilities.
    Forced to either feed or die, Aubrey is drawn to her former

irresistible cravings lead them to an explosive erotic encounter and her first feeding. But when her attempt to erase
the memory of their night together from Gavin’s mind fails, it becomes clear
that their passion may have unleashed a force she never could have ever
predicted….
