Viktor

From NYTs and USA Today Bestselling Author Kym Grosso...a novel in the IMMORTALS OF NEW ORLEANS Ancient vampire, Viktor Christianson, thrived for thousands of years without love. Enjoying the finer things in life, the international playboy embraced the essence of his immortal existence. But after he rescues a beautiful human from a bloodthirsty predator, he discovers she’s awakened the humanity he thought he’d long forgotten. Captivated by her unique energy, Viktor vows to protect her and soon realizes she’s the key to his future. When art curator Waverly LaFleur first encounters the lethal stranger, her instinct is to run far, far away. Although she’s hidden her psychic visions for years, premonitions morph into reality, and she begins to attract dark entities she could never imagine existed. When the debonair vampire saves her life, she cannot deny temptation, spiraling into the seductive ancient’s world. From the spicy-hot streets of Miami to New Orleans, Viktor and Waverly embark on a dangerous adventure. While seeking the truth about the evil that’s entered their lives, Viktor unearths the dark truth of his lineage, suspecting his nemesis is alive. He must choose wisely or become everything he’s always hated. If they survive, will he come to terms with his humanity and bond with a human or leave her forever, abandoning love? Viktor is the eleventh novel in the Immortals of New Orleans series. Although many of my readers prefer reading the series in order, each book is written to be read standalone.
