If Hesper embraces the darkness in her blood, can she choose where it ends?
Hesper has spent her life trying to control her hunger. Born Nephilim, she survives on human blood—and has learned exactly how dangerous it is to stop resisting the curse that lives inside her.
Then one violent mistake leaves a tower full of bodies behind.
Dragged north in silver chains to face judgment, Hesper expects cruelty from the Wardens escorting her. What she doesn’t expect is Aldric: quiet, dangerous, and strangely unwilling to treat her like the monster everyone else sees.
But the road north to judgement is leading Hesper back to Velliscar—and to Cassian Arcos.
Handsome, ruthless, and heir to one of the oldest Nephilim houses, Cassian is the man Hesper once loved. He knows what she is. He knows what she hungers for—and unlike Aldric, Cassian has never wanted her restrained.
He wants all of her.
Caught between the Warden who makes her question what she believes about the curse in her veins and the man who would gladly have her embrace it, Hesper must decide how much she can surrender without losing herself in a world on the precipice of change.
An Inheritance of Hunger is an adult dark romantasy featuring a genuinely morally gray heroine, forbidden attraction, a consequential love triangle, possessive obsession, captivity, political intrigue, and two dangerous men with very different ideas about what it means to love.
