Blood and Satin: A Paranormal Vampire Romance (Blood and Satin Book 1) (coming soon)
by Amanda McCarter · October 31, 2026
Adelaide Hunter is a vampire. Only she doesn’t know it yet.
Rescued from the streets by the duplicitous Madam Judith Devais as a teenager, Adelaide works as a high-class escort for the city’s elites. She has no delusions about who she is or what she does. She gets paid for sex and she’s well-paid.
But when one of her clients ends up dead after a dangerous night with her, she’s in trouble. She’s pretty sure she killed him, but she can’t remember a thing. And now someone close to her client is out for revenge. She’s desperate to figure out what happened as the bodies keep piling up around her.
Everything seems hopeless until she meets him.
Homicide Detective Derek Gregory wasn’t supposed to live until morning.
He’s on his last chance with the police department. He already has a reputation among his colleagues as a playboy and a screw up and he was on the edge of losing everything. Better to go out with a bang than a whimper.
Then he gets the call. A violent murder on the edge of town.
Everything points to Adelaide as the killer, but he can’t bring himself to care if she’s guilty or not. She’s awakened something in him he thought long dead and he’ll do everything he can to keep her out of harm’s way.
Even if it kills him.
Until launch!
