About this book

Standalone dark romance, Amazon bestselling in "erotic horror" and "vampire suspense," Moonvine is a standalone in the Kings of the Order dark PNR series (do not have to be read in order).

Leena Sperling has fallen into darkness. Darkness has a name: ZAND BYRON

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“I was ready for the dark and gritty. I was ready to devour. But I was not ready for my heart to be stolen. But that’s okay, Zand can have it. I absolutely loved this fabulously written paranormal romance with tons of dark and delicious alpha goodness. It was intense. It was intoxicating. It was scorching and utterly filthy. It was UNPUTDOWNABLE. And the best part? It rocked my socks off. I love when that happens.”—DiKetchup (Bookbub)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"Five stars does not do justice for this series. It grips you from the first chapter and gets better as you go. A book you will not want to put down. Not to mention I have found me another favorite author : ) I definitely recommend this series."—Marie (Goodreads)

Zand Byron is larger than life. He’s also a deeply dangerous, twisted soul, a textbook psychopath. But, somehow...she makes him feel.

"You can run, Leena. But I will find you."

Leena: When I arrived to the City of Souls, the tiny cemetery town wrapping the Bay Area foothills where Moonvine Manor is located, I had no idea what to expect or how insane my life would become after moving into the former Queen Anne funeral home that belonged to my missing sister. I should have known that being greeted by a tombstone-shaped granite welcome sign was either a sick joke or a bad omen. But I could never have predicted that I would fall in love with the darkness.

This is a dark, gothic romance. Check TW (trigger warnings) in Author's Note of book!

Captivating Mystery

December 13, 2025

I finished the book in 3 days. I couldn't put it down because the mystery was unfolding deliciously slow at first, but once it picks up, it's a nice ride. The world building is great; I felt like I was in the manor putting puzzle pieces together right along side the fmc. While, I wouldn't call it horror, there are elements of it. Suspense or thriller romance? Absolutely! If a little Gothic erotica/mystery with vampires is what you're craving, this one is definitely for you!. I received a free...

Suspenseful

January 16, 2026

Romance, paranormal, and suspense are all rolled together. Leena has moved to her missing sister’s creepy mansion, and the groundskeeper is very displeased about this. This groundskeeper, Zand, is keeping secrets from Leena, but ultimately fails to keep her in the dark for long. Leena wants to mind her own business, yet her curiosity always wins out, which brings danger straight into her life. Zand is grumpy, smexy, and you definitely do not want to be on his bad side. This story is packed with...

It was OK

I loved the blurb for this book, but when it came to reading it, I just wasn't as intrigued with it. Some of the scenes fell flat and the plot did as well for me. )

Great addition to series!

Didn't think the series could get any better...boy, was I wrong! This book has it all...great world building an amazing and exciting plot. The characters were so well written and intriguing. Very steamy. I highly recommend this series. Grab a copy, kick back and enjoy!. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. )

Blood Lust

July 4, 2025

This book caught me an would not let go. It had a little bit of everything love, erotica, horror and suspense. I never thought that I would read or recommend a horror erotica book but it is a must. Chapter after chapter I just had to know what happened next. A big plus would be an AI generated photo of Zand he sounds just beautiful 💖 I can't wait to read more books by this author and with this particular trope. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. )
