He wasn't supposed to come home.
Sergeant Ben Hale returns from the front lines broken, infected, and marked by the blood of an enemy no one understands. Abandoned in a military hospital, he's already dead inside-until Eden, a nurse with quiet steel, draws him back to life.
But peace is a lie.
In a government lab lies a serum that could end the war-or destroy what's left of him. When Ben is offered the chance to reclaim his place as a soldier, the temptation is undeniable. The Noctis whisper that power and release can be his-strength enough to silence his pain and restore the life he lost. Vampire-like yet born of science, they promise him freedom at a terrible cost. One choice. One transformation. And once it starts, there's no going back.
The Dawn of Vesper is a dark fantasy romance with gothic atmosphere, slow-burn desire, and a military sci-fi edge. A story of tragic love, morally grey choices, and monsters born, not made. Perfect for fans of Carissa Broadbent, Kerri Maniscalco, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Laura Thalassa.
Book One of The Noctis Cycle-a complete trilogy where hearts break, lines blur, and legends awaken.
