Claiming a mate on conquered Earth is driving alien vampire, Rafe, insane. Twenty years in the future, on conquered Earth, the sage-kissed breeze of Red Rock carries with it the taint of blood. Alien vampire, Rafe Nucretah, has lost comrades to a vile madness that strips warriors of reason and reduces them to murderous demons. Rafe has sworn against suffering that fate, but the only cure rests is the love of a woman. Time is out for this ruler of the Western Quadrant and claiming any female will do. Spunky and courageous reporter, Pepper Morgan, has lost both her mother and a fiance to the devastating plague that ravaged Earth before the vampires subjugated them. Desperate to reunite with her captured father, Pepper must throw herself on Rafe's mercy. Now Rafe and Pepper find themselves bound not only by desperation and blood, but also by dangerous secrets that have the power to enslave humanity and threaten vampire survival. Conquered is the first novel in the Kivronian Vampire Series. The romantic adventure centers on three compelling vampire brothers. These powerful, seductive warriors are thrown into the battle for Earth's control as they strive to overcome personal demons, cruel betrayal, and ruthless enemies. The Kivronian Vampire series touches deep inside the hearts of all people, for every person longs to be free. Enjoy this short excerpt: Rafe halted his advance down Pepper's soft neck. She'd folded against him in ardent surrender, heightening his desire and the difficulty to pull back. Each moan from her drove him to plunder her willing flesh, but lust wasn't love. He knew the truth of that. Satisfying superficial needs wouldn't gain him the depth of her soul. It would end in insanity."
