Bloodbound Under Neon

The silver-bullet victim on Evelyn Hart’s stretcher wakes as her forbidden spell seals his wound—and whispers her dead mother’s name. Then the curse in his chest spreads across the city, block by block. Kane Rook offers her one impossible bargain: marry him tonight, infiltrate the enemy council, and he’ll pay for her dying brother’s treatment. But on their wedding night, Evelyn discovers her new husband is the missing heir who commands the city’s shadow beasts—and the most hunted monster alive. He suspects her blood opened the curse, yet every dangerous touch makes it harder for either of them to tell protection from possession. With the council demanding Kane’s surrender and the blood door ready to destroy the city, will Evelyn expose the husband she’s beginning to love—or sacrifice her brother to save the monster inside him?
