Shade of Devil
3 primary works
Book 1
The greatest trick the First Vampire ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist.
Before the now-infamous Count Dracula ever tasted his first drop of blood, Sorin Ambrogio owned the night. Humanity fearfully called him the Devil.
Cursed by the gods, Sorin spent centuries bathing Europe in oceans of blood with his best friends, Lucian and Nero, the world's first Werewolf and Warlock—an unholy trinity if there ever was one. Until the three monsters grew weary of the carnage, choosing to leave it all behind and visit the brave New World across the ocean. As they befriended a Native American tribe, they quickly forgot that monsters can never escape their past.
But Dracula—Sorin's spawn—was willing to do anything to erase Sorin's name from the pages of history so that he could claim the title of the world's first vampire all for himself. Dracula hunts him down and slaughters the natives, fatally wounding Sorin in the attack. Except a Shaman manages to secretly cast Sorin into a healing slumber.
For five hundred years.
Until Sorin is awoken by a powerful Shaman in present-day New York City. In a world he doesn't understand, Sorin only wants one thing—to kill Dracula and anyone else who stands in his path. When the descendant of an infamous vampire hunter steps into his life, Sorin is torn between conflicting feelings in his heart--revenge or love. But to a woman like Victoria Helsing, it might just be considered a bloody good date.
The streets of New York City will flow with rivers of blood, and the fate of the world rests in the hands of the Devil, Sorin Ambrogio.
Because this town isn't big enough for the both of them.

Book 3
The greatest trick the First Vampire ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist.
Before the now-infamous Count Dracula ever tasted his first drop of blood, Sorin Ambrogio owned the night. Humanity fearfully called him the Devil.
Now that Sorin has finally trapped his nemesis, Dracula, by bringing his infamous castle to Central Park, Sorin is ready to fulfill his quest for vengeance, once and for all. Until his newfound family decides to…meddle.
The Greek Gods have found a way to put a figurative collar around Sorin’s neck so that they can control and manipulate him like a dog on a leash. But not all the gods want Sorin leashed…some want his help overthrowing the natural order of the world, and Sorin doesn’t know which is worse.
Then the witches—both the Cauldron and the Sisters of Mercy—make their own power plays, abducting Sorin’s friends to get what they want. And complying with the demands of any party pits him against the other two, leaving Sorin in an impossible situation if he wants to save all of his friends. Especially when some of his own allies might not be who they appear to be.
Blood shall flow, both immortal and mortal, and the world stands on the brink of destruction. Because Sorin is just now realizing how incredibly important his blood is to the fate of the world. And just how dangerous his family is to the world.
And trusting a vampire with blood has never been the greatest idea…
Violence is a virtue in the tale of the world’s First Vampire. The name Sorin Ambrogio will go down in the history books—even if he has to write it himself. Using blood for ink.
