Good thing Mira’s already got her boots on and a whip in her bag. Mira is a massage therapist in New York City.

Mira seems like Clive’s sweetest dreams come true.But Clive harbors secrets. An underground society of ritual sex magic practitioners is recruiting him, and neither Clive nor Mira are prepared for what happens when Clive’s dark powers are unleashed. Caught up in a battle between good and evil, Mira and Clive grow ever closer, but can Mira solve the mystery of Clive’s darkest memory in time to save him... and maybe the world?Bound by the Blood combines paranormal romance with dark contemporary romantasy into a spicy thrillride.“Cecilia Tan has always been ahead of her time. She was bringing us sophisticated stories about BDSM and the BDSM community before it became popular. With the Vanished Chronicles she may well have invented an exciting new genre. This book blends urban fantasy with erotic romance, using soulful intelligence and elegant prose as glue. The relationships are compelling and rich, but they’re accompanied by a supernatural world that offers a fascinating and unforgettable take on the cosmic and spiritual significance of eroticism.”—CHRISTOPHER RICE, New York Times bestselling author and showrunner of Interview with the Vampire less
