The Royal House of Galadin
The Royal House of Galadin, ruled by Queen Raven and King Phoenix, is a royal house built on the ashes of the old world and focuses on new beginnings. Leading the Charge is Falcon, son of Wulf (brother to Queen Raven) and a deadly assassin in his own right who is about face some serious challenges. After Falcon is Conalai (another brother to Queen Raven) a courtly spy who has face some deadly betrayals in the past and overcome them in order to protect the one person who means everything to him. All in all, each Vampyr royal will have their own book (except Raven and Phoenix since they're married and Felix Moregan because he's in Shadowy Stillness) and I really can't wait to get started because the Vampyrs are characters that I've always wanted to write books for.

Book One of the Royal House of Galadin
Sometimes when it rain, it pours...
Luna Tirenagan believes herself to be unlucky. After all, being shot, stabbed, run off the road twice, nearly sacrificed by a madman and multiple other attempts on her life, would make anyone believe that universe is out to get them. Though despite all that, Luna is actually most concerned about the dreams she shares with a mysterious assassin named Falcon. Dreams that were actually not dreams at all but visions of Falcon's present that have somehow created an unbreakable bond between them.
More to him than meets the eye...
Falcon Moregan is a man used to knowing everything and anything about a person with a single glance which is a skill he regularly uses as a Vampyr assassin. Unfortunately, the one person who is immune to his gift is the one person he'd give anything to know about: Luna. Especially since, for the past seven years, Luna's been watching him cut a bloody path around the world much to his annoyance. After all, she's always seen him at his worst but all that's about to change since, after seven long years, Falcon has finally met Luna in person.
The best laid plans...
For years Falcon has planned to win Luna over but even the best laid plans can be derailed by the unexpected. Unfortunately for Falcon, he has some big obstacles to overcome, like dealing with her phobias, random assassination attempts from 'elite' human assassins and interacting with the murder ghost inhabitants of Luna's hometown. All things that normally wouldn't phase Falcon but he can't shake the feeling that something or someone more nefarious is waiting in the shadows for right moment to strike. Though when Falcon does uncover the real villain behind it all, he realizes that the villain's true aim is about to strike a lot closer to home and may very well turn the long time Vampyr assassin from a predator to prey.
