About Fratelli: The Awakening (The Vampire Cartel)

As the ruthless Vampire Don of the Louisiana underworld, Lucio Di Salvo has everything he needs—power, immortality, and an empire fueled by blood and seduction of the melanated he lusts for. But his world is haunted by an ancient prophecy that drives him to hunt the descendants of a famed hoodoo priestess, in hopes he finds the Chosen One, the only being capable of tipping the balance of power among supernatural forces. One night, he crosses paths with Dolly, a sharp-witted and strikingly beautiful EMT, while she’s on an emergency call. Their encounter is brief, almost incidental, but something about her awakens a primal connection, stirring memories from another life—a desire he can’t ignore. As their fates intertwine, Dolly is irresistibly drawn into Lucio’s world, where passion ignites in the shadows and secrets lie buried beneath centuries of blood feuds. She begins to see glimpses of a part of herself she was never meant to know and ignites a forbidden desire that consumes all supernatural men. You see Dolly carries a secret, one she doesn’t even know she possesses—a power woven into her very bloodline, a hidden weapon capable of unraveling the vampire hierarchy, even threatening the powerful Master Vampire, Don Vittorio Di Salvo, Lucio’s own father. As their attraction grows into an all-consuming, forbidden romance, the dark truth of her lineage could prove deadly for them both. For while Lucio hunts the Chosen One, he is unaware that the woman who ignites his deepest desires may also be the one to end him. In The Vampire Cartel, love and power collide as Lucio and Dolly tread a dangerous line between ecstasy and destruction, lust and loyalty. Entangled in a romantic chiller that could shatter the very foundation of the underworld, they must confront the seductive and perilous forces that bind them together…or risk everything in a game that only one of them may survive.
