Blood in the Mist The First Bite by Selena D. Moretti Violet Devaux isn't looking for trouble-just her missing best friend. But when the trail leads to Nocturne, a secretive club hidden deep in New Orleans, she finds more than she bargained for. The owner, Magnus Valeriano, is powerful, rich, and far too good at getting under her skin. He says he wants to help. He also says the rules are simple. But nothing about him-or Nocturne-is what it seems. As Violet digs deeper, she's pulled into a world of velvet lies, ancient bloodlines, and people who don't stay dead. Blood in the Mist is a dark vampire romance about temptation, power, and how far someone will go for the truth.
